My Bio

Writer, gamer, techie, modder, software developer, editor. While I am a huge gamer in general - particularly RPGs, action-adventure and MMOs - the Mass Effect series is my beloved.

"Requiem," the final book in my original science fiction/space opera saga, AURORA RHAPSODY, is now available. You can learn more about the saga, which begins with "Starshine: Aurora Rising Book One" and consists of three trilogies - AURORA RISING, AURORA RENEGADES and AURORA RESONANT - as well as read excerpts, quotes, reviews and more on my website: www.gsjennsen.com. All nine books are available in ebook, paperback and audiobook from Amazon (amazon.com/author/gsjennsen); the paperbacks and audiobooks are also available from many other retailers (www.gsjennsen.com/books).

The first book in a new trilogy, "Exin Ex Machina (Asterion Noir Book 1)," will be published later this year.

I have a Mass Effect fanfic, "If It Meant Living," which is complete and covers the entire game trilogy - as well as a series of one-shots, "Tales," and a sequel, "Beyond," which is also complete. Links to free eBook versions are below.
