Mike and Rachel Grinti are a husband-and-wife writing team. They met at a writing workshop in 2002, though they didn’t start writing together until a few years later. Rachel is a children’s librarian. Mike fell in love with reading after he checked out The Hobbit from his school library and has been hooked on fantasy and science fiction ever since. When he’s not writing or reading, he’s probably playing video games and has a day job making them.
