American author who co-wrote Titan and Enterprise novels with Andy Mangels and then continued alone with the two Romulan War books and further Titan volumes.
Michael A. Martin began in Star Trek comics and moved into prose alongside Andy Mangels. As a team they wrote Section 31: Rogue, Cathedral, The Sundered, the first two Titan novels Taking Wing and The Red King, and the Enterprise novels Last Full Measure, The Good That Men Do and Kobayashi Maru.
Writing solo, Martin took the Enterprise story into the long-discussed conflict between Earth and the Romulans in The Romulan War: Beneath the Raptor's Wing (2009) and To Brave the Storm (2011).
He also wrote the Titan novels Seize the Fire, part of the Typhon Pact series and involving the Gorn, and Fallen Gods.
