About the Author

Justin Killam: Gamer, Writer, Philosopher, Publisher, Teacher, Novelist, Theologian, Author, Game Designer, and... A storyteller all of his life, Justin first got into weaving tales of the fantastic while playing classic pen and paper RPGs like D&D, VtM, and his own home brewed awesomeness. Creating stories interactively with a group of friends, spending hours obsessing over every facet of a character and their development, makes character driven stories an absolute must. Combining storytelling with gaming is still a huge part of his life, when he can fit it into the busy schedule of being a husband and teacher in his home town of Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. Seven Crows is his first novel, set in a world that has been developing within his mind since studying Theology and Philosophy at STFX.
