My Story

J.V. Jones

I’m a USA Today and Waterstones bestselling writer who has sold over a million books. I had some difficult years when I lost my mum, my longterm relationship broke down and I dealt with a serious health problem. I found it nearly impossible to keep writing. I had to earn a living. At one point I was working three jobs: dog sitting, freelance writing and remote-assisting a dude running a startup dating site. When I was finally in a position where I could work on Endlords full-time, I got the manuscript finished in under a year.

My job now is to get the book to you as soon as possible.

I write gritty massively-scaled Epic Fantasy. The late Robert Jordan called me a striking storyteller. Booklist described the Sword of Shadows series as,"Outstandingly rendered A uniquely powerful epic fantasy series of enormous scope, peopled by fascinating, compelling characters whom readers will take to their hearts.”

I live in San Diego, California, where I get up early in the morning to walk in the mist and listen to the coyotes howl.
