Author bio

My latest novel, A Song of Light and Sorrow, is a redemptive fantasy about a captured thief, a nameless wanderer, and the shadows that bring them together. I'm working on two new novels that I'm hoping to release later this year! If you're interested in staying updated, my author website is: www.hoganburleigh.com
