Catherine Egan grew up in Vancouver, Canada. Since
then, she has lived on a volcanic island in Japan (which erupted while
she was there and sent her hurtling straight into the arms of her now
husband), in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Beijing, on an oil rig in the middle of
Bohai Bay, then in New Jersey, and now in New Haven, Connecticut.
She is currently occupied with writing books and fighting dragon armies with her warrior children.
