Stan C Smith

Stan C. Smith’s secret formula? Create strange worlds filled with even stranger creatures. Drop in unsuspecting characters. Shake vigorously. Stan lives with his wife Trish deep in the Ozark Forest of Missouri, where creatures are more docile than those in his novels.

His goal is to stimulate your sense of wonder, get your heart pounding, and keep you reading late into the night. His books are for anyone who loves adventure, discovery, and mind-bending surprises.
