Anders Fager

Anders Fager (b. 1964) is a Swedish horror writer and game designer who has described his fiction as "what would happen if James Ellroy took on H. P. Lovecraft." He is best known for his short-story collection Svenska kulter (2009), issued in English translation as Swedish Cults (Valancourt International, 2022).
He began his game career in 1982 at the age of 18, when he traveled around Sweden to demonstrate the first Swedish role-playing game, Drakar & Demoner. For that game, he wrote Spindelkonungens pyramid, the first role-playing game adventure published in Swedish. He later wrote supplements for such role-playing games as Call of Cthulhu, Kult, Twilight: 2000, and Tales from the Loop.
He made his literary debut in 2009 with the publication of Svenska kulter, whose stories place Mythos horrors like Shub-Niggurath and Ithaqua in Swedish settings, mostly in the present day. His Swedish Mythos milieu, known as "The Cult's World," has been turned into a role-playing game, as well as being incorporated into the Swedish edition of the Call of Cthulhu game.
In 2022, Dark Horse Comics published The Crows, a graphic novel written by Fager with art by Peter Bergting.
