Author Links
- Barry Nugent - Fallen Heroes is Barry Nugent's first novel, available online and from selected Waterstones branches in the UK. The book is well worth checking out - particularly if you like modern day thiefs, Indiana Jones, secret government organisations, demons and history-spanning plots. Oh and book two will hopefully be out in 2014. The Unseen Shadows are growing - with audio plays, comics and more.
- Bernard Cornwell - Author of the Sharpe series of Napoleonic action novels amongst many other fine historical adventures. I particularly liked the Grail Quest trilogy which focusses on an English archer through campaigns agains the French.
- Chris Ryan - Ex-SAS soldier, Chris Ryan has written some excellent, action-packed fiction over the last decade or so. It's always a joy to pick up a new title and settle in for the ride.
- Karen Traviss - Karen's Star Wars novels are some of the strongest from that entire range. Karen writes small-team combat stunningly well and her knowledge of the military and special forces shines her writing seems as authentic as Chris Ryan (Ex SAS man and great author!) to me. Her Gears of War series is also superb and really fleshes out the world and characters of this video game series.
- R. A. Salvatore - Author of some fine fantasy adventures. No-one choreographs a fight quite like this author. Many of his novels are set in the Forgotten Realms setting, however he also has written novels set within his own worlds. Highly recommended is The Highwayman.
- Terry Pratchett - Author of the fantastic fantasy-comedy Discworld series of novels amongst others. I have been an avid reader since I was twelve and his books always offer thoughtful insights into our own history or current events.

- Cult Pens - Probably the best site to buy your pens and mechanical pencils / refills from. They have a great range and deliver the goods in super quick time.
- DC Comics Official site - I am far more a DC guy than a Marvel guy. Green Arrow, Birds of Prey, Batman, Supergirl ... I like these characters far more than other companies offerings.
- DeviantArt Community - This is in my opinion the best Art community site around. Whether an admirer of art or an artist / amateur yourself, this site offers a place to display your wares. The community is friendly and people are willing to help each other improve.
- Letraset Company Site - the manufacturers of the markers I use for colouring. Really good quality, blendable markers which are worth checking out if you are an arty type.
