Born and raised on the Big Island of Hawaii, CS Revlis grew up in an environment rich in paranormal activity. Raised in a family where work ranked above imagination, he put off his writing until he was married. In 2005, he was inspired by the support and encouragement of his new found family, and decided to pick up the pen and bring the world of his imagination to life. Thus, the Rise of the Vampire (RotV) series was born.
