James Maxwell is a London-based fantasy author. Born in New Zealand, and educated in Australia, from an early age he devoured the science fiction and fantasy classics, his love for reading translating to a passion for writing.
Inspired by a strong interest in history, he decided in his twenties to see the world. He relocated to London and then to Thailand, Mexico, Austria, and Malta, developing a lifelong obsession with travel. It was while living in Thailand that he seriously took up writing again, producing his first full-length novel.
