Adam Gaffen is the award-winning author of the Cassidyverse, a genre-blending universe where science fiction, fantasy, romance, and rebellion intertwine. His books span centuries and genres but share a common thread: characters with grit, stories with heart, and futures worth fighting for. Recognized across multiple indie award platforms, his work includes sweeping sagas, pulse-pounding missions, and mythic romances with cosmic consequences.

Every book stands on its own—each a gateway into a world where chosen family matters, love defies expectation, and change is always possible.

Adam’s Quotes

“Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was Oh no, not again. Many people have speculated that if we knew exactly why the bowl of petunias had thought that we would know a lot more about the nature of the Universe than we do now.”
― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

“But endings are just cloudy glass. Looking at it from one side, everything beyond is scary, vague shapes, and you can’t imagine what’s on the other side. Then you go through and you find it’s just… just a place. Like anywhere else. I guess… you’d be surprised how natural it can feel to heal sometimes.”
