Richard Aleas

Richard Aleas denotes the name of an American penman whose birth name is Charles Ardai. In the run-up to choosing the said penman, Aleas considered tens of other potential pseudonyms among them Richard Darias and Richard A. Sale. Incidentally, the said names are anagrams. The penname Aleas—a homonym of alias—was hewed from his first name Charles. Even then Aleas has several books published under his legal name.
