Duke Bellucci is an American author from a small town in Pennsylvania who is currently operating out of Portland, OR. Duke spent his childhood playing in the woods, dreaming of worlds far beyond his own. Soon he found himself enthralled by the worlds of books, films, and especially video games, whose constantly progressing technology promised increasingly immersive experiences. This would become the inspiration for the virtual reality setting in his first book, Golden Ghost.

Even now, he dreams of the day when technology can take us to worlds only seen in our imaginations.
