Chris Travis writes fantasy and speculative fiction. He endeavors to create “miss-your-train-stop stories, the kind that absorb the reader in the happy concentration enjoyed by children at play, mystics in prayer, and artists at work, who forget to eat.” His debut novel, JOSHUA, MONSTER HUNTER, is a middle-grade urban fantasy, a spooky adventure that follows Joshua, foster kid, trouble maker, into the world of monsters. When Chris isn’t trying to figure out how his protagonists can possibly survive, you can find him playing with his kids or hiking in the woods. He lives in New York City with his wife and three little boys.
