Adam Osterweil grew up in Plainview, NY. He attended college at Cornell University, where he majored in Classics, studying Greek and Roman literature, history, and language. Adam earned a Master of Arts from Stony Brook University, and is now a Junior High English teacher at Springs School in Springs, New York. His hobbies include treasure hunting, video games, and collecting comic books. This is his first book.

Peter Thorpe began drawing and painting at an early age. He studied commercial art at The California College of Arts & Crafts and from there moved to New York City, where he worked in the fields of editorial and advertising illustration. Upon discovering that he had a penchant for type design and layout, as well as for illustration, he began to specialize in book covers. Most notably, he has created book covers for over 40 editions of Tony Hillerman's mysteries and he created the cover for Garrison Keillor's best-selling Lake Wobegon Days. DragonSteel: The Amulet of Komondor is the first book for which Peter has created both the cover art and the interior illustrations. It is also the first book for children that he has worked on. Peter now lives in Asheville, North Carolina.
