Andrew Maloney grew up in the backseat of a car, traveling across the States and abroad with his healing evangelist parents (see www.doveontherise.com). All of that traveling gave him lots of time, staring out the window, to come up with some fantastic ideas for stories. He graduated from the University of North Texas with an arts degree in writing, and has ghostwritten and edited more than a dozen nonfiction books. The Master Song and Verse of Valor are part of Andrew's epic, high fantasy series entitled Blue Time. The third novel in the series, Word of Wisdom, is scheduled for publication in 2019. Andrew and his wife, Christy, live in the cross-timbers area of north Texas with their two sons, Connor and Christian.
