About the Author

About Stephen

“Writer of fiction, teller of fantasy, and lover of nonsense. Because that’s life!”

Stephen Reeves was born in 1980 in Huntsville, Alabama. He currently resides in Switzerland with an undetermined number of cats greater than zero, and a propensity for nonsense. On those cold nights where the wind steams off snowbanks, he is known to write award-winning fantasy novels. And curse his wife’s cold feet.

Curses of Scale was his debut novel, written over the course of four years in the inspirational country of Switzerland. The Melody of Three soon to be released this fall from Riversong Books, will be a continuation and a stand alone trilogy.

Pandora’s box of world-building elements

"Curses of Scale is a Pandora’s box of world-building elements, and Reeves shows great skill at parceling out the pieces of lore and mystery that today’s fantasy readers crave. Readers will be sure to enjoy this crafty, utterly transportive novel." ~Red City Review

Vivid scenery and quirky characters populate The Melody of Three

"Each character has something driving them, some fierce motivation behind their actions, but the full importance of their goals isn’t quite revealed until the end, and sometimes not even then. Each character has flaws, personality quirks, and all the little details that make them full-fledged people and not just tropes or puppets – it’s easy to get interested and invested in what happens to them."

An exquisitely written start

"Reeves writes with both the mechanical acuity of Shakespeare and the warm, wry wit of Terry Pratchett...This is an exquisitely written start to a new fantasy series that demonstrates the dangers of an irresistible distraction."Red City Review
