Manuel Fernández y González (Seville, 1821 - Madrid, 1891) was a prolific Spanish novelist of the Romantic period, known for his historical and swashbuckling novels, which enjoyed great popularity in his time. He was a very influential author in 19th-century Spanish popular literature, often compared to Alexandre Dumas for his ability to generate adventure stories. He wrote more than 300 novels, among which "The King's Cook", "The House of Joy", and "The Seven Children of Écija" stand out. His work, although often criticized for its lack of literary depth, was fundamental for the development of the feuilleton and the serialized novel in Spain. He was also a journalist and playwright.
