Nikolay Tellalov was born in 1967 in Sofia. From 1975 to 1984, he lived in the former USSR. In 1987, he enrolled at the Sofia Higher Institute of Chemical Technology, studying toward a B.Sc. in Chemistry; he dropped out in 1994. Later, he went through a variety of professions: a construction worker, a bank security guard, a postman, a baker, a bookseller, a carpenter. From 2001 to 2005, he worked as an editor at Kvasar Publishing House. Currently, he is a freelance translator from and into Russian. Tellalov’s first publication was the novella „Да пробудиш драконче“ (“To Wake a Dragon Girl”) (1998), a contemporary fairy tale about the love between a human youth and a half-zmey girl, interweaving elements of Bulgarian mythology and history with realistic literature. It grew into the Zmey Cycle, so far consisting of the novels „Царска заръка“ (A Royal Decree) (2001), „Пълноземие“ )Full Earth) (2003) и „Слънце недосегаемо“ (Sun Untouchable) (2009). “To Wake a Dragon Girl” has had three paper editions and an electronic one; in 2000, it was voted by Bulgarian SF fandom as the second best Speculative Fiction Book of the 1990s. A similar vote declared A Royal Decree the Best Speculative Fiction Book of 2001, and Full Earth was included in the curriculum of the United World College of the Adriatic in 2004 and 2005. Besides the Zmey Cycle, Tellalov has had a novel and a short story collection published. „10 на минус девета“ (10 to the Power of -9) (2007) describes a future dominated and shaped by nanotechnology. „Ангели пазители“ (Guardian Angels) (2008) collects the eponymous novella and a number of short stories. Over the past ten years, Tellalov’s stories and novelettes have appeared in various Bulgarian anthologies and magazines. His foreign publications include Russian translations of a novella („Короната на мравките“) (2005) and several short stories (2008).
