Michael Green Jr is a data scientist, writer, and founder of Lynit, a tool to wrangle your ideas into a well structured novel. He loves reading and writing speculative fiction, singing, and learning something new every day. He grew up in Washington, DC and has lived in NYC, Paris, Melbourne, and Mexico City.
He started writing The End of Nobility when he was 15 with only the notion that the story was about a group of kids on the run and they don't know why. Over the years it evolved into an exploration of a society heavily based on magic, but magic doesn't pass down through blood.

The End of Nobility is a work of fiction penned by author Michael Green Jr in the fantasy, adventure, and interpersonal drama subgenres. The work is intended for young adult readers to enjoy. In a world where magic coexists with basic needs, children live in fear that the draft could take them off to combat at any moment. The plot turns ominous when Dre and Alaan, a unique set of twins, and Rye, a disgraced soldier's son, are targeted. Running from assassins, they learn a dark truth about their world and a family history they knew nothing about. The narrative unfolds seamlessly, offering a riveting mix of fantasy, suspense, and societal commentary.
Author Michael Green Jr knows how to set up a rollercoaster of emotions that rockets through a speedy and exciting plot. I was most impressed by the quality of the world-building, which vividly immerses readers in a society seemingly utopian, yet rife with hidden perils. The characters, especially Dre, Alaan, and Rye, are compelling and well-developed, and I enjoyed the unique dialogue twists that separate the three central figures and show their personalities sparking off each other to create complex new dynamics as they’re put to the test. The narrative's pacing keeps you on edge, and the unexpected twists are locked firmly into the logic of the story world but are revelatory nonetheless. The narrative's climax is both satisfying and leaves room for anticipation, promising a compelling series that seamlessly merges magic, mystery, and the human spirit. Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend The End of Nobility as a thrilling dystopian fantasy drama that will entertain the young and young-at-heart alike.
