MJ Howson was raised in New England. His first novel in The Tallow Series, "An Urban Legend" cracked the top five on Amazon's horror/thriller list and received a 5-star rating from Readers' Favorite. Feedback has praised the series as gripping page-turners with great characters and surprising plot twists. Readers' Favorite went so far as to compare the writing style to the great Roald Dahl.
Alex Schuler is a pseudonym for the writing team of William Roetzheim and Randy Becker.
William's love of writing began at a young age, however he started his career as an early pioneer in the field of AI software development. His systems have been deployed on Navy ships, submarines, and NASA space shuttles, as well as by businesses and government agencies. After launching multiple software companies, William turned his attention to the arts and became an award-winning playwright, poet, and published author.
Randy is an Emmy-nominated producer who began his career as an actor starring in film, television, and on Broadway (including the Tony Award-winning play Love! Valour! Compassion!). After producing a film of his own, he made a dramatic career change and now expresses his creativity through writing and producing.
This is the fourth book William and Randy have co-authored as Alex Schuler. Their first, Code Word Access, shot to #1 on Amazon in the sci-fi category.
