罗杰•泽拉兹尼 Roger Joseph Zelazny (May 13, 1937 - June 14, 1995) 美国著名作家，在科幻、奇幻两大领域均达到了极其罕见的巅峰状态。1960年代，他率先倡导科幻小说写作要从心理学、社会学和语言学三方面考虑，打破太空冒险科幻一统天下的局面，被誉为“新浪潮”的领军人物。 在泽拉兹尼的作品中，创造性地将科幻、奇幻融为一体，将神话、宗教与科幻奇幻有机结合，每一个设定都如教科书般精确经典，营造出独特的世界观和故事背景。他的科幻作品中有奇幻的瑰丽恣肆，奇幻作品有科幻的严谨设定。因此，他被乔治•R.R.马丁称为“他那个时代最伟大的科幻奇幻作家”。 他一共摘取过6次雨果奖、3次星云奖和2次轨迹奖，1963年，他的作品被编入“著名科幻小说殿堂”。
