Collin Leverette

About Me

Collin Leverette is a software engineer and former nuclear engineer whose background in systems design and failure analysis informs his approach to fantasy world building. Shardbreak — The Last Chord, his debut novel, explores a mythic fantasy setting structured around resonance, memory, and the idea that harmony is something maintained—not achieved. His work blends epic fantasy with philosophical and musical frameworks, emphasizing repair over conquest and legacy over triumph. Collin lives in the southeastern United States with his wife and children, where he writes, builds, and continues to ask uncomfortable questions about order, power, and what remains when systems fail.
