Shadow is a passionate storyteller with a love for fantasy, transformation, and character-driven adventures. Blending rich world-building with emotional depth, his books explore identity, belonging, and the bonds that form between unlikely heroes. His debut series, Knights of the Arcane, and his coming-of-age fantasy Bloodbound Moon have captured readers with their unique take on beastkin lore, magic, and found family. When he’s not writing, Michael enjoys exploring mythology, world cultures, and nature—often drawing inspiration for his characters and settings from all three. He’s also a proud supporter of the furry and therian communities, incorporating their spirit of self-discovery and expression into his work. Shadow is currently working on the next installments in both series and continues to build immersive worlds for readers to get lost in.
