About the series

The Scar Bound series uses the backdrop of a supernatural world to ask a far more mundane question; is anyone truly beyond saving? Through Murphy, Jason examines what it means to feel empathy, for oneself as much as the people around them, in a world that rarely feels as if it makes sense.
His characters are imperfect, frequently ill-equipped for the trials they face both physically and mentally. But that never stops them from struggling all the same, putting in the effort every day to strive for something better.

Agent's note

When I first connected with Jason, what struck me immediately was his profound, grounding humanity. In a genre that often relies heavily on supernatural spectacle, Jason’s work is anchored by an incredible amount of heart.

He is a writer who deeply values his family, his brother, and his rescue dogs, and that genuine, unassuming nature translates flawlessly onto the page. It is exactly why his protagonist, Murphy, feels so remarkably real.

Jason possesses an exceptional gift for taking high-stakes, paranormal architecture and grounding it in raw, relatable human vulnerability.
