Nick is an action-adventure thriller novelist, who writes the types of books he likes to read. That means you wont find anything boring, slow, or sappy in his stories. People have described his work as airplane books, but he just sees that as a compliment.

Nick was born in Connecticut, grew up in Texas, and lives in Colorado with his wife, two children, three dogs, and tortoise. He loves snow, drinking whiskey by the fireplace while its snowing, and writing books by candlelight while a thick layer of snow piles up outside.

Michael Laurence
"Michael Laurence not only writes the sort of books I want to read, he writes the sort of books I want to write. They're incredible -- in scope, in development, in pacing. Characters you love and love to hate, scenes that are so vivid, so real, you'll feel as though you're right there with Mason and his team!"
