David Farland was a New York Times bestselling science fiction and fantasy writer with more than fifty novels to his credit.
He worked as the lead judge for one of the world’s largest science fiction writing contests, the L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers and Illustrators of the Future, from 1991 until his death in 2022. He helped mentor dozens of writers who have gone on to become New York Times bestsellers—people like Brandon Sanderson, Stephenie Meyer, and James Dashner.
Dave lived in Saint George, Utah, with his wife and family at the time of his passing. He will be sorely missed. The sixth LTUE Benefit Anthology, Troubadours and Space Princesses, was created in his honor.
