About the Author:
Wesley King is the author of THE VINDICO. He has recently come to terms with the fact that his first career choice—jedi—may be impractical for the moment. He is now embarking on his second choice—YA author. After coming to grips with this choice, he found himself having an inclination towards the self-serving villains in the background of fantasy stories, and, with this newfound avenue for his own dark humor and fierce desire for super powers, he wrote this series. Wesley lives in suburban Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. Visit him at www.thevindico.com.
