Jim C. Hines has been writing fantasy and science fiction since the early 2000s, with a catalog that now spans over 90 books across eleven series. His breakout work was the Jig the Goblin series, starting with Goblin Quest (2004), which told a classic dungeon-crawl adventure from the goblin’s perspective rather than the heroes'.
Hines went on to write the Princess series, reimagining fairy tale heroines as action characters, and the Magic Ex Libris series, featuring a librarian who can reach into books and pull out real objects. His most recent series, Janitors of the Post-Apocalypse, follows a crew of cleaning staff aboard a spaceship. Hines is also a Hugo Award-winning fan writer and has edited the Invisible anthology series about representation in genre fiction.
