John has been an avid reader and fan of fantasy and science fiction for most of his life. He has degrees in chemistry and chemical engineering, and worked for many years as a rocket scientist before deciding to embrace his dream-to become a writer. He started by designing, writing, and publishing his own pen and paper role-playing game, The Realm of the Gateway. With the success of that under his belt, he decided to let the voices in his head have more control, and, well, this book is the end result.
