About

An avid reader of fantasy and science fiction novels all of my life, Michael Radcliffe published his first novel, The Guardian's Apprentice in 2010.  He lives with his family in rural Kentucky, along with their five cats. When not acquiring more ferocious felins for their plan of world domination (cat armies are terribly hard to train), he enjoy spinning stories from the wisps of magic around him.  His writing is supervised by Idris, a small dragon statuette that has a place of honor next to his computer.  Idris frequently advises Michael on all things magical, especially dragons.
