Michael Jordan

Michael Jordan was born in Lancashire, England. He studied Natural Sciences at London University, and went on to become a successful BBC television presenter of wildlife programmes in the 1980s. His love of writing began at about that time, when his focus of interest switched to ancient religions and cults, for which today he is best known as a non-fiction author. He has a current list of 26 published works.

In 2001 he wrote a highly controversial book, published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson, Mary, the Unauthorised Biography, about the origins of the Marian cult, which was subsequently sold worldwide in various languages.

Michael's move into fiction writing with The Mara Document, evolved from his years of research into the field of ancient religions and their origins. His most recent fiction title, Starra, sets the stage for a trilogy of love stories (not romances) set on a remote island in the Outer Hebrides The second in the series, The Sands of Starra, is now completed and is due for publication early in 2022. Michael lives in rural Devon. He is the Chair of the Fungus Conservation Trust and the consultant mycologist to the Veterinary Poisons Information Service.
