Martin Millar is a Scottish writer from Glasgow who is now resident in London. Under the pseudonym Martin Scott he has authored the Thraxas series of fantasy novels, for the eponymous inaugural volume of which he won the World Fantasy Award for best novel.

Overview

The novels he writes under his own name focus upon urban decay and British subcultures, and the impact these have on a range of characters, both realistic and supernatural. There are elements of magical realism. Some of them are set in Brixton, Millar's one-time place of residence; many are at least semi-autobiographical, and Love and Peace with Melody Paradise and Suzy, Led Zeppelin and Me both feature Millar himself as a character. His Thraxas novels combine secondary world fantasy and pulp noir thriller. In 2000, he received the World Fantasy Award for best for the first installment, Thraxas.
