天下霸唱 《鬼吹灯》系列作者，第一部翻译成英文的小说。
“天下霸唱”笔名来源于网络游戏，原名张牧野，性别男，天津人，学美术出身。为人性格豪放，不拘小节，待人坦诚热情。喜欢自由自在地干自己的事情，不喜欢受过多束缚，也不喜欢什么都上纲上线的思维方式，尤其讨厌别人在自己面前提“文化”。2010年10月上旬以总价1000万元签约北京新华先锋文化传媒有限公司。
中国最具想象力的作家，其创作的《鬼吹灯》系列风靡华语世界，是继金庸等人的武侠作品以来，在华人间传播最广的小说。天下霸唱的创作将东方神秘文化与世界流行文化元素融为一体，为类型小说打下了深深的中国烙印。
他的小说所关注的，永远是人在充满未知的环境中的思考与行动。跌宕起伏的故事，古老的传承，神秘的遗迹，兄弟间的情谊，生死无常，加之幽默精练的语言、丰富多彩的民间文化、使他的文字构建出另外一处“江湖”。

The second book in China's multimillion-copy bestselling series takes readers on a treacherous journey to the depths beneath a mountain range, where ancient tombs are certain to contain riches but also rumored to be guarded by merciless supernatural forces.
Self-proclaimed gold hunter Tianyi, who has excellent feng shui skills, along with his best friend, Kai, and a shady antiques dealer called Gold Tooth, have traveled all the way from Beijing to Gulan in search of treasure in ancient tombs. But what they think will be a simple grab-and-go of loot turns into trouble when they are faced with a perplexing labyrinth of tunnels full of unexpected obstacles, traps, and deadly creatures that thwart their advancement, as well as their escape. As if that weren't enough, the return of their American friend Julie Yang, with whom they faced perils on a previous expedition, leads to a startling discovery--one tied to both China's ancient past and the Yang family's history, and one that could very well be the death of them all.
Translated from the Chinese by Jeremy Tiang, whose recent work includes NEVER GROW UP, the translation from Chinese of the autobiography from action movie superstar Jackie Chan.
