Wayfinder

With the publication of Unstoppable, the highly anticipated sequel to his award-winning debut novel Relentless, Michael Maloof cements his place as a compelling new voice in the world of globe-trotting thrillers.

​Born with an insatiable curiosity and a genetic case of wanderlust, Michael brings a rich tapestry of personal experiences to the page, crafting heart-pounding international adventures that blur the line between fiction and reality.

​His wanderlust has taken him to over forty countries across six continents, each trip adding another chapter to his already rich life story. Michael’s adventures read like a thriller novel in themselves: from dredging for gold in Honduras and hunting Mayan artifacts in Guatemala to acquiring uncut diamonds in Liberia and dodging an elephant charge in Kenya.

But his tales aren’t confined to adrenaline-fueled exploits. Michael’s commitment to authentic experiences has seen him tramping through the jungles and swamps of Cameroon in pursuit of giant frogs, half the size of a man, or handling some of Africa’s most venomous snakes, always flirting dangerously with the thrill of the unknown.

Among his most treasured experiences are the opportunities to train alongside Navy SEALs, Marine Raiders, Army Rangers, Green Berets, and the CIA—gaining firsthand insights that infuse his writing with unparalleled authenticity.

A serial entrepreneur, international adventurer, and self-confessed Starbucks Frappuccino addict, Michael invites readers into a world of high-stakes intrigue and relentless action. He’s not just writing thrillers—he’s lived them.
