J.T. Maxwell has been a storyteller his whole life and has been sitting on the idea for his debut novel since he was very young. It took a global pandemic closing down the world to give him the oomph he needed to really dive in. Together with his wife of twenty-three years, two sons, and a pair of cats, he makes his home an hour west of Boston where he has settled into a teaching career after fifteen years in finance and banking. He loves a good road trip, maintaining their Victorian-era home, beer-making, and he is constantly on the hunt for the world’s best root beer float. 2024 Winner of the Adventure, Contemporary Fiction, Fantasy category from International Impact Books, along with a First Place for Fiction-Action and Adventure from BookFest, you can find him on Instagram and Facebook @authorjtmaxwell
