Notă biografică
K.B.
Wagers
is
the
author
of
the
Indranan
War
trilogy
and
the
forthcoming
Farian
War
trilogy,
about
the
gunrunner
empress
Hail
Bristol.
They
live
in
the
shadow
of
Colorado's
Pikes
Peak
with
their
partner
and
a
crew
of
poorly
behaved
cats.
They're
especially
proud
of
their
second-degree
black
belt
in
Shaolin
Kung
Fu
and
their
three
Tough
Mudder
completions.
There's
never
really
a
moment
when
they're
not
writing,
but
they
do
enjoy
fountain
pens
and
good
whiskey.
