ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
After college, he targeted working in the publishing
industry and was fortunate to find a job early after graduation. He worked as
Author Relations Manager for Tyndale House Publishers, the publisher of his
first two novels.
The thirteen years he spent working in author relations
taught him the business of publishing as well as the psyche of writers.
Early on, he made a deliberate choice of not wanting to be
boxed in by a brand or a genre. Instead, Travis has chosen time and time again
to write the stories that mean something to him at that moment. He views his
first ten years of being published as training and practice. Those novels in
many ways were written for himself.
The four years of writing full time have taught him the
discipline and determination necessary to make it as a novelist. They’ve also
served to close the chapter on what is hopefully just one era in his writing
journey.
The stories continue to fill his head like they did when he
was in third grade. The only difference is that Travis now knows what to do
with those stories. His goal continues to be to tell stories that move him as
well as his readers. He wants to continue to experiment and take risks, but
more than anything he wants to provide readers a satisfying experience.
The dream remains the same. To try and write something
magnificent. To make up wild worlds full of wonderfully rich characters. To
make sense of the world through the stories he tells. And to try and inspire
hope with the words he writes.
ABOUT THE BOOK
His Rebellion Will Soon Turn to
Hope
When Chris Buckley first encountered the mysteries of creepy
Solitary, North Carolina, he had little idea how far he would fall into the
town’s shadows. After losing the love of his life, Chris tried to do things his
way. He hunted answers. Then he gave up trying to find them.
But now Chris comes back to Solitary knowing there’s a
purpose for his being there. As he watches his place in a twisted and evil
bloodline become clear, Chris waits for the last battle—and wonders who will be
left when he finally makes his stand.
