Brian Reynolds was born in the Midwest and as a teen grew to be very passionate about writing and language. He studied every facet he could and molded himself in the image of great and inspiring authors, hoping to one day be capable of crafting similarly powerful works. Brian lives now with his wife and their surrogate children, dogs Knight and Cairo, ferrets Rikki-Tikki-Tavi and The Doctor, and rat Yuki in Topeka, Kansas. He couldn't be happier. Though, buying his books couldn't hurt.
