"There's a blurb that I read about Tim Akers that said he is 'a rising star of fantasy'. Well, if this book is any indication, I'd say his star has very much risen and planted itself firmly in the sky among the most talented authors in the genre. If you love fantasy that has edge of your seat action and takes no prisoners, then run out and get this book once it is officially released next month. I guarantee that you will be treated to one of the best sword and sorcery books you've read in a long time. I highly recommend Wraithbound and you can be sure that this will not be the last Tim Akers book that I pick up. I'm just sorry I didn't get into his stuff sooner " --Out Of This World SFF "As a fan of the Old World of Warhammer, Wraithbound hit all the right notes. The magic system was intriguing, and the book was breathlessly paced so I was pulled from one adventure to another. Any fan of some of the more classic fantasy settings of the 90s will find a lot to get nostalgic about along with a raft of new stuff to keep them interested." --Auston Habershaw, author of The Saga of the Redeemed "A thrilling blend of classic fantasy, hard magic, and grimdark tone. Like if Warhammer was written by Brandon Sanderson." --J.T. Greathouse, author of The Hand of the Sun King and The Garden of Empire "Fast-paced and packed with cinematic magical duels, Wraithbound is an exhilarating ride from start to finish." --Grimdark Magazine "I've only recently become familiar with Tim Akers' work, and I'm highly impressed . . . this novel demonstrates the kind of clarity and maturity I wish were more evident in other volumes of this sort. I'm anticipating the release of the next volume in this series." --Galaxy's Edge Praise for Valhellions: "Akers' novel puts the fantasy in urban fantasy, with real-world-dwelling fantastical characters similar to Jim Butcher and ridiculous set pieces reminiscent of Terry Pratchett." --Booklist, starred review Praise for Knight's Watch: "Buckle up and get ready for a fun ride. Tim Akers delivers an epic story about weekend ren faire warriors versus actual monsters. Best fictional use of a Volvo station wagon ever." --Larry Correia Praise for Tim Akers: "A must for all epic fantasy fans." --Starburst "Full of strong world building, cinematic and frequent battle scenes, high adventure, great characters, suspense, and dramatic plot shifts, this is an engaging, fast-paced entry in a popular subgenre." --Booklist, starred review "Take a bit of fantasy, mix in the horror of the demonic, and put in some top-notch writing and you'll have Akers' latest novel." --Hellnotes "Fast-paced . . . an epic fantasy story with action, intrigue and a good story." --RPG "Delivers enough twists and surprises to keep readers fascinated . . . contains action, grittiness, magic, intrigue and well created characters." --Rising Shadow "An extremely well-developed secondary world." --SF Signal

Tim Akers grew up in rural North Carolina, the last in a long line of Scottish bankers, newspaper editors, and tourist-trap barons. He moved to Chicago to pursue his passion for apocalyptic winters, tornadic summers, and traffic. He stayed for the hot dogs.
