Stephen Graham King lives in Toronto. His first book, Just Breathe, tells the funny, blunt, uncompromising story of his three year battle with metastatic synovial sarcoma. Since then, he has concentrated on writing speculative fiction, in particular, queer-themed space opera, and his short fiction has appeared in the anthologies North of Infinity II, Desolate Places and Ruins Metropolis. His first novel, Chasing Cold, was released in 2012, followed by the first books in the Maverick Heart Cycle, Soul's Blood, (2016) and Gatecrasher (2017).
