Born and raised in the Bay Area of California, Lance Robert Kreutzinger’s eyes were opened to the world of fantasy at a young age by his eldest brother, introducing him to the game Dungeons & Dragons, where his love for fantasy only grew. From there he then learned tales of the heroes of Ancient Greece, loving the battle between Achilies and Hector in The Iliad. His entire family were also fans of JRR Tolkien and Star Wars, with his father often quoting lines from The Hobbit and his two older brothers quoting Star Wars, making such stories a norm in his household. When Lance was still a small child his life changed when the author Jeffery Deaver stayed at his home for a few days, making him want to be a writer from that point on. From there he wrote a plethora of stories, most being for the fantasy game Dungeons & Dragons that he played with many friends and still plays to this day. It was not until Lance found himself with a family of his own and a stable career that he was finally able to fulfill his dream of becoming a published author and sharing his stories with the world.Read more about this authorRead less about this author
