Hi, I’m River K. Scott and I’m crazy about all things fantasy and sci-fi.
My books blend my obsession over the fantastic with the darker questions about our human existence. What is fate? Is there a God? Is there life after death? Why do people do bad things? Who’s calling the shots in our lives? What does it mean to be human living in a community? What does it mean to be a good human?
Whether it’s a young adult urban fantasy thriller, a middle grade historical fantasy, a YA sci-fi or cyberpunk, or a high fantasy epic, my books will bolt along at breakneck speed while tackling these questions. Oh, and with a good helping of romance, too.
Along the way, I’ve studied religion and philosophy, earned an MFA in Fiction, worked as a junior literary agent, and developed eLearning for agencies combating domestic violence and sexual assault.
When I’m not writing, reading, or binging Netflix, I’m rock climbing in Tucson, Arizona.
I grew up in a small town in Central Florida. Yes, we had a neighborhood alligator. And our backyard, policed by two fluffy dogs, was forever being commandeered by poisonous reptiles.
