J. C. Hutchins is the pseudonym for American podcast novelist and journalist Chris Hutchins. [1] Hutchins is best known for his 7th Son series.
Hutchins began podcasting in 2006 after receiving multiple rejections from various agents, [2] with 7th Son being his first podcast release. Shortly thereafter in 2007, St. Martin's Press picked up the print rights to 7th Son and Dark Arts, [3] an interactive novel. [4] Hutchins, dubbed a "new media superstar," writes from home alongside his partner, novelist Eleanor Brown. [5] [6]
Critical reception to Hutchins' work has been mixed to positive, with Publishers Weekly praising both the first novel in the 7th Son series and Dark Arts [7] [8] and Kirkus Reviews panning both. [9] [10] The Celebrity Cafe reviewed Dark Arts, praising the story but stating that the extra elements detracted from the story instead of enhancing it. [11]
