About Carol Van Natta, USA TODAY Bestselling Science Fiction and Fantasy Author

Thanks for checking out my author page. I write the award-winning Central Galactic Concordance space opera romance series and the bestselling Ice Age Shifters paranormal romance series. Most of my books are available as ebooks and paperbacks from most major online booksellers. Professionally narrated audiobooks take a little longer to produce. 

In my career, I’ve been a risk management specialist, technical writer, singer, actor, non-profit director, Tai Chi instructor, and of course, an author. I still do some of those things so I can eat regularly and sleep indoors. Oh, and provide suitable warm beds and treats for my feline overlords.

Shameless plug: For brand-new science fiction romances with adventure, love, and pets, check out the Pets in Space® anthologies. I took over ownership and editing the the anthology starting in 2021, and wrote novellas for several of the earlier editions.

While my muse almost always creates series, I have written standalone stories, such as In Graves Below , a paranormal romance set in S.E. Smith's “Worlds of Magic, New Mexico” universe.

If you’d like to read something completely and totally different, with a quirky YA feel, look for Hooray for Holopticon. It's a retro science fiction comedy, co-written with Ann Harbour. Trust me, it’s nothing at all like the Central Galactic Concordance series, but it’s a fine, silly romp suitable for teens and adults.

I have also written screenplays and theatrical plays.
