Ryō Hanmura (Japanese: 半村 良 Hepburn: Hanmura Ryō?, October 27, 1933 – March 4, 2002) was a Japanese science fiction, fantasy, and horror author. His name is alternatively transliterated as Ryō Hammura. While he wrote books as Ryō Hanmura is real name was Heitarō Kiyono (清野 平太郎 Kiyono Heitarō).[1]
He won the first Izumi Kyōka Prize for Literature for his novel Musubi no Yama Hiroku (産霊山秘録) in 1973.[2] He won the Naoki Prize for his 1975 novel Amayadori (雨やどり). He won also the 1988 Nihon SF Taisho Award.[3]
One of his novels was the basis of the 1979 film G.I. Samurai (戦国自衛隊 Sengoku Jieitai). A series of role-playing video games called The Legend of Heroes (英雄伝説 Eiyū Densetsu) was loosely based on his novel by the same name.
