About the Author

Returning to The Church, author Dan Gonzalez began studying exorcisms and possessions; two areas of the religious life that had always been a facination for him. Dan has also been a fan of Anime growing up… and to this day. In an attempt to break into the comic book industry, Dan Gonzalez brought the two worlds of his personal interests together in the story of Vlad, the lead character of “The Witch in the Garden”, just after the new millennium. Dan is a practicing Catholic of the Roman rite and the author of “The Anakim”, later republished as “Anakim of the Sun: Being Human”. Writing and drawing have always been passions for Dan, and they both come together in this novel and the story of “The Witch in the Garden”.
