Maurice Broaddus graduated in 1993 from Indiana University-Purdue
University at Indianapolis and holds a Bachelor's of Science degree
in Biology. He works as an environmental toxicologist for a local
firm, Commonwealth Biomonitoring. He comes from a family that
includes several practicing obeah (think: Jamaican voodoo) people,
but is now the facilitator for the church, The Dwelling Place. He
is married with two children.
His areas of interests includes religious studies, folklore, and
myths. His previous book was the novella Orgy of Souls, written
with Wrath James White. He says he only wants to get famous enough
to be able to snub people at horror conventions.
Praise for King Maker

witnessing a writer whose work they have enjoyed reached a new
plateau in their storytelling skills, and such is the case here...
Broaddus delivers in a voice that both whispers and roars and
cannot be ignored."- Bram Stoker and International Horror Guild
Award-winner Gary A. Braunbeck
