David KudlerDavid Kudler is not afraid of heights. He just has a healthy respect for depths. "I'm as surprised as anyone," he says, "that I've written a series of books featuring a young woman who loves to be as high up in the air as possible." His multi-award-wnning, recently completed Seasons of the Sword series of historical adventure novels (Risuko, Bright Eyes, Kano, and Murasaki) have been featured in Foreword Magazine, Kirkus, and others. Risuko graced the cover of Publisher's Weekly.Also an editor and publisher, he's overseen the publication of more than two hundred titles including Joseph Campbell's best-selling Hero with a Thousand Faces, an exploration of hero stories from across the ages and around the world.He lives just north of the Golden Gate Bridge with his wife actor/teacher/author Maura Vaughn, their wordsmith daughters, and their (apparently) non-literary cat.
