Yal Ayerdhal (26 January 195927 October 2015) was a French thriller and science fiction writer from Lyon. His later work preferred the thriller genre; Transparences, Resurgences and Rainbow Warriors play with various genres. Rainbow Warriors (published at the end of May 2013) flirts with political fiction with most protagonists being LGBTQ. He received the Grand Prix de l'Imaginaire in 2005 for Transparences and in 1993 for his novel Demain une oasis. He is considered one of the leading names in both genres. He shared the Prix Tour Eiffel with co-author Jean-Claude Dunyach for their 1999 novel Étoiles mourantes. He also received an award for his novel ''Parleur ou les chroniques d'un rêve enclavé and two for Transparences'', a thriller. He also received the Cyrano award for lifetime achievement in the service of genre fiction and its actors.

Ayerdhal was born in the La Croix-Rousse area of Lyon. In addition to his own writing career he devoted part of his time to supporting aspiring young authors and, with Le droit du Serf, to struggle with copyright law exceptions in the service of authors.
