Author Bio - Chad Lynch grew up in Haubstadt, Indiana, a small town in the southern part of the state. He now lives about 15 miles north in the even smaller town of Patoka, Indiana, population of about 600 and the oldest town in Gibson County. "I've loved the fantasy genre my whole life. I grew up reading fiction and fantasy and always wanted to come up with my own idea for a fantasy series. This book is more epic than the first two and takes the story line and characters in multiple directions."
