Andrew Harman is a science fiction and fantasy fiction author from the United Kingdom. His novels bear titles that pun on other famous works. Each work reflects its playful title, having a plot matching the work to which it alludes, with a humorous twist.

Many of his novels are set in the fictional UK town of Camford, which is a hybridisation of the two university towns of Oxford and Cambridge.

His books are published under the Orbit imprint in the UK.

Andrew Harman studied biochemistry at the University of York, being a member of Wentworth College.

Andrew Harman has since moved on to create YAY Games, a UK independent publisher of board and card games. This award-winning company released Frankenstein's Bodies in 2014 – inspired by the works of Iain Lowson in his RPG Dark Harvest: The Legacy of Frankenstein. This was followed in 2015 by the family friendly hit Sandcastles and 2016 sees the launch of Ominoes the brand new 6,000 year old game.
