Melissa Jacobson writes dark historical fantasy for anyone who knows their story doesn’t end when they come of age—it just gets weirder. A former tech executive turned author with hands-on experience in historical research, she infuses her stories with grit, supernatural menace, and haunted Americana. Her debut series, Bad Magic, unfolds in a cursed version of the American West—where death fuels magic, the past has teeth, and justice walks a crooked line.
A former tech executive turned author, she has a thing for forgotten histories, ghost stories, and the kind of truths you only find with your boots in the dust. She lives in Colorado with her husband and three scheming cats.
