Tom LarcombeTom Larcombe was introduced to fantasy books at a young age. Those that were aimed more at children hooked him in, but not well enough for him to remember their names at this point in his life. Their draw led him to books aimed more for the adult reaer and so he found himself, at around age eight, starting in on the Steven R. Donaldson Thomas Covenant series and The Hobbit, followed shortly thereafter by the Lord of the Rings books.

He lives in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains with his wife, two daughters, three cats, and a variable number of chickens. Read More Read Less
