James S. A. Corey is the pseudonym used by writers Daniel Abraham (November 14, 1969) and Ty Franck (May 18, 1969). The first and last names are taken from Abraham's and Franck's middle names respectively, and S.A. are the initials of Abraham's daughter. This alias emulates those of many space opera writers from the 1970s. In Germany, their books are published under the name James Corey, with the middle initials omitted.
