About the author

T. Eric Bakutis is an award-winning author and game designer. His first fantasy trilogy, Tales of the Five Provinces , is complete, and Analog Science Fiction and Fact actually liked his grimsnark scifi thriller, Supremacy’s Shadow , which he happily admits is filled with violently explosive nonsense. You can also check out his cyberpunk police procedural, Loose Circuit , if you enjoy reading about homicidal professional gamers, waifu parlors, and the Russian mob.

You can find more information about Eric's books, read sample chapters, and find some cool art at his author website, www.tebakutis.com. When not writing, he is probably in Skyrim VR.
