Adrian Atamańczuk (nickname "Lancan") – Krakus (a person from Cracow) by birth, a resident of Vienna by fate.

Nature lover, traveler fascinated by foreign cultures and lands far beyond the horizon, paradoxically combining hunger of the vagabond with homemade tastes. Restless spirit and a dreamer. He is also interested in ancient culture, especially during the Principate period.
He writes mainly fantasy (books "The Beast" and "Arlin"), he also creates thriller stories (about sniper Viktor Lagrave) and travel columns. When he does not write, he dreams of living in a remote area in the wilderness, where he will find time and silence.
