Cami Murdock Jensen
Born and raised in Spanish Fork, Utah, Cami Murdock Jensen developed a love for Fantasy at an early age. Being the only daughter of 8 kids requires an imagination! She spent her summer days playing in the nearby canal looking for frogs and salamanders. She loved reading stories of dragons, fairies, princes and princesses.
Fantasy became an escape, a way to develop my imagination. I become engrossed in reading and creating!
Cami’s mother, Anna Murdock started a Youth Theater in the community for her children to learn acting, singing, dancing, and stage fighting. To keep costs low, Anna and Cami began writing their own musicals with Tales of Ye Merry Woode, based on Robin Hood.

"First Earth: Book One in the Arch Mage Series by Cami Murdock Jensen is the perfect young adult novel for readers who want excellent narration, impressive characters, and an incredible storyline. The atmosphere was amazing right from the very beginning, the story built at the right pace, and the momentum was kept steady until the very end... The narrative was intense, the pace was fast, and the characterization was on point. There wasn't a point at which I thought it wasn't working. I simply loved First Earth! Brilliant!"
"First Earth, Book One in the Arch Mage series, provides many compelling surprises in the course of its fantasy adventure, from the more familiar wizards to an interplanetary journey made by a victim who is nota wannabe female wizard, but who suffers from physical ailments and many uncertainties... "provides many compelling surprises in the course of its fantasy adventure... "Teen readers who like their characters spunky and determined with their actions powered by extraordinary scenarios will relish the pace of First Earth "... readers enjoy a vivid and fast-paced story powered not just by action, but by Agnes' personality and self-discovery. "First Earth is highly recommended for teens seeking not just the usual fantasy trappings or quest story, but a powerful character in a spunky young protagonist who has already found her survival skills tested long before mages, wizards, and war transported her to another realm."
"Loved it! Although Jensen's novel does have some similarities to The Golden Compass, the book is over all a wildly creative, inspiring tale about hardship and personal acceptance.Agnes dislikes herself and her scars, and she experiences chronic nerve pain.While she realizes early on that being connected with magic soothes her illness, Agnes struggles to understand her powers. It's only when she truly learns to love herself that things become clear. This is a beautiful uplifting message about the power of self-discovery, and an important lesson for young readers to learn. ...Agnes is the perfect hero for a complicated, difficult age."
