Christopher Rowe

Christopher Rowe's first novel Sandstorm was recently published by Wizards of the Coast. He is currently hard at work on the second, Sarah Across America, about maps and megafauna, among other things.

He has also published a couple of dozen stories, and been a finalist for the Hugo, Nebula, World Fantasy and Theodore Sturgeon Awards. His work has been frequently reprinted, translated into a half-dozen languages around the world, and praised by the New York Times Book Review. His story "Another World For Map is Faith" made the long list in the 2007 Best American Short Stories volume, and his early fiction was collected in a chapbook, Bittersweet Creek and Other Stories, by Small Beer Press. His story "Nowhere Fast" is forthcoming later this year in Candlewick's young adult anthology, Steampunk!, edited by Kelly Link and Gavin Grant.

He lives in a hundred-year-old house in Lexington, Kentucky, with wife Gwenda Bond, Hemingway the Cat, Emma the Dog, and Puck the Dog.

He is represented by Shana Cohen of the Stuart Krichevsky Literary Agency in New York.
