Note: According to the author's Amazon page, this is an undisclosed pseudonym of an author who "writes full time for a living. .... In order to separate what has become a HUGE wall of books and get a chance to play again, I've snuck out of my real author name and built this pen name to have some fun at the small level once more." Copyright statements and some Facebook posts by the author suggest that it's a pseudonym used by Michael Anderle and possibly L. A. Starkey, but further confirmation is nedded.
