Ryan Elbwood

The author of all the books in this profile is Horst Kaltenhauser. He writes under the pseudonyms Ryan Elbwood and Chris Wolker, as well as under his real name. The separation of pseudonyms occurred because the author writes in different genres that are not compatible with each other.

Kaltenhauser has been interested in all natural sciences since his early childhood. Astronomy, astrophysics, cosmology, biology, and mathematics are his preferred subjects.

He has also delved deeply into the fields of psychology, philosophy, and market and social economics.

Professionally, however, he took a completely different path. As a developer of game systems in all market segments, he became known under various pseudonyms as a "Jack of all trades," as the press called him.

He developed games for publishers, radio and TV stations, promotional games for companies, city rallies, games for escape rooms, and worked for several renowned game studios in the online game segment as a game designer and developer of MMOGs and other formats.

As the leader of a well-attended gaming group, he wrote hundreds of role-playing adventures, which led to the idea for his fantasy novel "Aldrian's Adventure."

Among his works in the board game sector is a game with a world record in variety, and in the field of his scientific publications, a new cosmological thesis (ENS thesis), which has already been largely verified by the James Webb Space Telescope. Pre-astronautics and ufology are hobbies that he describes as his "great love."

Under the pseudonym Ryan Elbwood, Kaltenhauser writes fantasy novels, fantastic stories, and fairy tales, as well as non-fiction books on the topics of ufology and pre-astronautics.

Under the pseudonym Chris Wolker, he primarily publishes scientific and social science guides and non-fiction books.
