Christopher M. Cevasco was born in New Jersey and spent a memorable decade in Brooklyn, NY, but feels most at home in Post-Roman and Anglo-Saxon Britain. A lifelong passion for history and fiction led him to earn degrees in Medieval Studies and English and later to embark upon a writing career that merges these loves. His novel, BEHELD: GODIVA'S STORY (Lethe Press, 2022) is a darkly twisted psychological thriller set in the 11th Century.
Currently, Christopher is excited to be working on a series of historical novels based on the Arthurian legends. Published by Sapere Books, The King Arthur Origins Series takes its inspiration from Geoffrey of Monmouth and some of the other earliest sources for King Arthur and Merlin. The first book, THE BOAR FORETOLD, is now available.
Christopher has worked as an appellate attorney, and since 2018 has also been assistant series editor of the Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy annual anthologies published by Mariner Books/HarperCollins. He was the founding editor of the award-winning PARADOX: THE MAGAZINE OF HISTORICAL AND SPECULATIVE FICTION.
Christopher lives with his wife and their two children in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
