About the Author

Ethan Timothy Swick wanted to be a chimpanzee when he grew up, but he settled for becoming a writer. He enjoys science fiction and horror, but fantasy will always be his favorite.
When he isn’t writing stories, he can usually be found reading, camping, spending time with his family, smoking a pork butt, or just completely spacing out. He roots for the Nebraska Cornhuskers on Saturdays and the Kansas City Chiefs on Sundays. Green Day is almost always on his turntable.
He currently resides in Ozark, Missouri, with his wife and daughter.
