NPR calls his work, "Adventurous and enormously engrossing." Rollins unveils unseen worlds, scientific breakthroughs and historical secrets matched with stunning suspense. As a veterinarian, he had a practice in Sacramento for over a decade and still volunteers at local shelters. Nowadays, Rollins shares his home up in the Sierra Nevada Mountains with his two golden retrievers, Echo and Duncan. He also enjoys scuba diving, spelunking, kayaking, and hiking.

Reviews
This talented storyteller moves smoothly from Thriller to Fantasy. A terrific bit of storytelling."--Terry Brooks, New York Times bestselling author of the Shannara novels
"When I'm sitting around the campfire, hearing of heroic deeds and derring-do, I want James Rollins to be standing across from me spinning the yarn. He grabs you at the beginning and doesn't let go, weaving a believably unbelievable world of magic and danger that is both terrifying and beautiful, cruel and tender. A masterful storyteller across the genres, James is at his best in The Starless Crown."--R. A. Salvatore, New York Times bestselling author of The DemonWars Saga "The Starless Crown is a bold and brilliant epic fantasy by a master storyteller! Wonderfully complex characters, shifting points-of-view, unparalleled world-building, and a great sense of fun make this a certified triumph!"--Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Relentless and Kagen the Damned "An action-filled fantasy quest that is gripping and thought-provoking. The high stakes and smooth writing made it a page turner.... As in his thrillers, he includes science, historical secrets, and suspense."--Mystery & Suspense Magazine "An interesting blend of science and magic, flying ships and prophetic gods, propel this fantasy into epic territories."--Library Journal "Fun...the fantastical creatures and landscapes are imaginative.... Readers looking for plot-driven fantasy will enjoy the action."--Publishers Weekly Praise for James Rollins: "Rollins is what you might wind up with if you tossed Michael Crichton and Dan Brown into a particle accelerator together."--The New York Times "Adventurous and enormously engrossing."--NPR "After Crichton passed away in 2008 he clearly passed the baton to James Rollins, who like Crichton, is a renaissance man."--Huffington Post
