Chris DeSantis grew up in the 80's with a love for stories in all mediums, science fiction in particular. A cable broadcast of any Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien, or Predator movie was not to be missed, and Exosquad was the cartoon of choice. 

He devoured books of all genres, from the Star Wars Expanded Universe (RIP), to novelizations of his favorite movies, and the works of Bowden, Carr, Card, Clancy, Cline, Corey, Crichton, Foster, Haldeman, Heinlein, Huff, Hurwitz, King, Morrell, Niven, Scalzi, Steakley, Taylor, Traviss, Weir, Wells, and others. He graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute with a bachelor of science in Mechanical Engineering. Since then, he worked as a software engineer on a variety of products; from finite element analysis simulators, to DoD contractor on counter-WMD platforms, and educational software. Now, he writes.

When not writing or reading, he enjoys family time, home improvement projects, investing, RPGs and video games. He lives in North Carolina with his wife, son and daughter, and two cats.

This is his first novel.
