About the Author
Jason McWhirter has been a history teacher for eighteen years. He lives in Washington with his wife, Jodi, and dogs, Meadow and Macallan. And yes, their new puppy was named after one of his favorite scotches. He is a certifiable fantasy freak who, when he wasn’t wrestling or playing soccer, spent his childhood days immersed in books and games of fantasy. He’d tumble into bed at night with visions of heroes, dragons, and creatures of other worlds, fueling his imagination and spurring his desire to create fantasies of his own. When he isn’t fly fishing the lakes and streams of the Northwest, or wine tasting and entertaining with his wife and friends, he spends his spare time sitting in front of the computer writing his next novel or screenplay.
