Praise for "King Maker" - The Knights of Breton Court, Book 1:
"Broaddus delivers in a voice that both whispers and roars and cannot be ignored." - Bram Stoker and International Horror Guild Award-winner Gary A. Braunbeck
"The language is fierce and evokes the gritty realism of life on the streets. [The supernatural elements] drift through the novel like smoke... King Maker is going to be the best read of 2010." - FantasyLiterature.com
"King Maker is a fascinating novel, a true urban fantasy in the literal definition of the term... [it] should be on every SF fan's shelf." - Adam Christopher

Maurice Broaddus is an exotic dancer, trained in several forms of martial arts--often referred to as "the ghetto ninja"--and was voted the Indianapolis Dalai Lama. He's an award winning haberdasher and coined the word "acerbic". He graduated college at age 14 and high school at age 16. Not only is he credited with inventing the question mark, he unsuccessfully tried to launch a new number between seven and eight.
When not editing or writing, he is a champion curler and often impersonates Jack Bauer, but only in a French accent. He raises free range jackalopes with his wife and two sons ... when they are not solving murder mysteries.
The way he sees is, as a fiction writer, he's a professional liar. His dark fiction has been published in numerous magazines, anthologies, and web sites, most recently including Dark Dreams II&III, Apex Magazine, Black Static, and Weird Tales Magazine. He has two novellas, Orgy of Souls (co-written with Wrath James White, Apex Books) and Devil's Marionette (Shroud Books), and edited the anthology Dark Faith (with Jerry L. Gordon, Apex Books). His novel series, The Knights of Breton Court (Angry Robot/HarperCollins UK) debuts in 2010. Visit his site so he can bore you with details of all things him at www.MauriceBroaddus.com.
