About this title

About the Author

Since I was ten I wanted to be a writer, and in my early years I wrote stories for fun. I have now retired to write my books and play bad golf. The Paladin Chronicles show my fascination for the experience of others, history and exotic locations. I hope you love the characters and their story as much I have loved writing about them.
