Jody Royer is an avid reader of classic and contemporary fiction.  His favorite books include Sci-Fi and Mystery Novels written by Canadian authors of the past and present.  Swept away in seascape settings and fantastical worlds, Royer loves being lost in a good book!  More than just a past-time, Royer is truly passionate about reading and researching science fiction and mystery novels.  As an essayist, he dives deep into the lesser told meanings and adaptations of the most poignant literary pieces in Canadian fiction writing and its history.  In his own fiction writing, the aspiring author Royer crafts unique fantasy worlds full of mystery, splendor and science-inspired environments.  Weaving actual historical context into his works is something Royer is currently curious about and dabbling with.  This approach is something he has adopted from one of his current favorite contemporary authors: Guy Gavriel Kay.
