She does independent research on genocide, having worked on war crimes investigations for the International Criminal Tribunal, and did CSI work for a decade in California. Oddly enough, she was once a marine biologist at the Institute of Marine &amp; Coastal Studies at USC. She has two novels out - <em>Rough Magic,</em> a forensic/urban fantasy, and <em>Dragon’s Kiss</em>, a YA fantasy about a crippled boy who can talk to dragons. She writes mystery, horror, science fiction, and fantasy. Her hobbies include exploring cathedrals, alien-building via nonhuman biology, and trawling through history books for the juicy bits.</p><p><strong>Narrated by: Ibba Armancas</strong></p><p>Ibba Armancas is an award winning writer/director based in Los Angeles available for audio or cinematic projects across the board. She's read for Starship Sofa, Escape Pod, the Drabblecast, and Psuedopod, but still hasn’t found time to build a website and encourages listeners to shame her about it on instagram or twitter.</p><p><a href=\"http://www.amyhsturgis.com/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Fact: Looking Back At Genre History by Amy H.
