Nathan grew up Italian, shrowded in pasta, wine, and cheese. He currently resides in Rochester, NY, where he grew up.
​
From a young age, magic, monsters, and especially the fantastic creatures that accompany them were the center of his world. None of which takes more presidents than perhaps the most mystical of them all, dragons. The bejeweled beasts drove him forward and fostered his inner writer, pushing him to pursue his passion.
​
As a boy, Nathan spent most of his time submerged in a world of ink. It started out as simple trips to the bookstore but soon blossomed into book fairs and book clubs, of which one of his favorites delved into the third installment of Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Cycle: Brisingr.
​
Paolini's Inheritance Cycle, as well as Colleen Houck's Tiger's Curse, J.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, Alison Goodman's Eon, and Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, as well as books by Cinda Williams Chima, Bram Stoker, and Frank Hubert. Each of them had a wonderful impact on his life that he cherishes with every word he writes.
​
Nathan began writing his first novel at 16, Zenlogia. It is his most cherished memory and possession, the drive for his writing, and the source of his brand.
​
He began writing Nightwalker after entering college with a vision. The drastic decline in the quality of vampire/werewolf and monster work as a whole, combined with the continuous repetition of similar books, drove him to change the view of the vampire, armed with his knowledge of history and the original myths, dating all the way back to Vlad the Impaler and source of the Dracula legend.
​
Like Zenlogia and the two sequel books in the series, Nightwalker began by creating the whole story, from the first book to the last, and laying out every important detail. His realistic characters and their more realistic actions come from his ability to set himself in place of the character, acting and thinking as if they would. He found that acting outdoors through camping, forging weapons, and pottery helped him envision a deeper world and understand their experience.
​
Nathan is grateful to all of his readers, and, most importantly, those who share his love for fantasy, including all things magic and dragon. He is currently working on several projects which are in the works. His three-time award-winning debut novel Nightwalker is now available.

The Seer
A secret sealed forever.
A city carved from gold.
TwThe last of her kind.
​
Algiroth has been defeated. One of Verin’s four generals has finally been taken down, but there’s no time to rest. Even with the Radiant Church no longer in the picture for now, the threat of Verin and his minions still knocks on their door.
With the inability to remove the Sun and Moon Stones from Kelsey’s wrist, Ren is left with only one option: to take her with them back to Nexus. Meanwhile, Kelsey is still haunted by the ghostly figure hanging around Ren. Her constant visage of the unknown grows stronger by the day. And each sight of something that no one else can see plagues her conscience. And to make matters worse, Ren and Kelsey’s relationship is getting rocky.
When their search to remove stones leads them to a map, one so secretive it was sealed away, never to be seen again, Ren and the others must journey across Nexus in search of an artifact only thought to exist in legends: the Records of the Gods. An ancient book made of gold that contains information on every magical artifact ever created.
Can Ren and his friends finally find a way to remove the stones while Kelsey discovers the secrets to the ghostly visitor and repair his and Kelsey’s relationship at the same time? All bets are off in the second adaptation to the battle-crazy Demonic War series.
