Nathan Lowell

Nathan Lowell  has been a writer for more than forty years, and first entered the literary world by podcasting his novels. His sci-fi series, The Golden Age of the Solar Clipper grew from his long time fascination with space opera and his own experiences shipboard in the United States Coast Guard. Unlike most works which focus on a larger-than-life hero (prophesized savior, charismatic captain, or exiled prince), Nathan centers on the people behind the scenes – ordinary men and women trying to make a living in the depths of space. In his novels, there are no bug-eyed monsters, or galactic space battles, instead he paints a richly vivid and realistic world where the "hero" uses hard work and his own innate talents to improve his station and the lives of those of his community.

Dr. Nathan Lowell holds a Ph.D. in Educational Technology with specializations in Distance Education and Instructional Design. He also holds an M.A. in Educational Technology and a BS in Business Administration. He grew up on the south coast of Maine and is strongly rooted in the maritime heritage of the sea-farer. He served in the USCG from 1970 to 1975, seeing duty aboard a cutter on hurricane patrol in the North Atlantic and at a communications station in Kodiak, Alaska. He currently lives in the plains east of the Rocky Mountains with his wife and two daughters.

The Wizard's Butler

Magic can be hidden in plain sight, not behind ancient battlefields or forgotten kingdoms, but inside an old house, a quiet neighborhood, and the life of someone who thought his greatest adventures were already behind him.

In The Wizard's Butler, an unexpected career change leads Roger Mulligan, a former soldier and emergency responder, into a world where the impossible is treated with patience, practicality, and a surprising amount of household management. Hired to serve an elderly man who claims to be a wizard, Roger soon discovers that caring for a magical estate requires more than keeping rooms tidy. It demands trust, curiosity, and the ability to recognize wonders that most people would never notice.

Nathan Lowell's cozy urban fantasy series focuses on the quieter corners of magic, where spells, secrets, and supernatural traditions exist alongside everyday life. Instead of grand battles and world-saving quests, the story explores the meaning of purpose, the strength found in ordinary routines, and the bonds that form when people from very different worlds learn to rely on each other.

With a blend of slice-of-life fantasy, gentle mystery, and character-driven storytelling, the series creates a rare atmosphere where competence matters, kindness has power, and even the smallest tasks can reveal something extraordinary. The hidden magical world is fascinating, but the heart of the story lies in the people who inhabit it, their histories, their struggles, and the unexpected family they build together.

For readers who enjoy warm fantasy settings, found-family themes, slow-burn character growth, and stories where magic feels personal rather than distant, The Wizard's Butler offers a different kind of adventure, one built on discovery, connection, and the quiet transformation of an ordinary life.


The Wizard's Butler consists of two books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
