Bryant Condie is the father of four precocious children and a bedtime storyteller extraordinaire. He has been a trusted mentor to countless teenagers as a volunteer leader for outdoor activities, sports, and spiritual development. While enjoying all seven states he has lived in, he prefers those that attract an abundance of good Mexican restaurants per capita. He works for a technology company during the day, and in his free time enjoys playing soccer, making salsa, baking chocolate chip cookies, and winning a match of sword ball against his children in the yard. Agent Jax: How to Build a Secret Agent is his debut novel and was written ninety percent on a tablet (the electronic variety, not stone) during his long but beautiful commute on the bus.
