Jamie has always loved a good story, whether real or imagined. He grew up in the south of England before moving to the north, where he worked as a history teacher. He still lives there with his wonderful family, but now spends his time writing, mainly about people hitting each other with swords.

Squad Games is Out Now!
Hi!
After a long time in development, I’m excited to announce that Squad Games is out now!
Audible US | Audible UK | Audible AU | Audible CA
Most LitRPG heroes level up alone.
Lothar ‘Stiff’ Sauer has to level up an entire squad.
If you’ve played tactical RPGs like Battle Brothers, Wartales, Jagged Alliance etc, you’ll understand where this story is coming from. Otherwise, expect a gritty

Squad Games: A Military Fantasy LitRPG:
"Hell this was a fun read! Jamie has taken different genres, put it in a shaker, shook it up, and produced the perfect martini! Add to that, his impressive prose and command of words, and I'm a glutton at a feast, gorging myself on every detail.

“I often hear talk of saving the world. The world can be turned in various directions, often by an apparently insignificant action. It is hard to predict, standing from one point in time and looking ahead to another, whether the results will be good or bad. Usually, of course, they are a mixture: good for some and bad for others.”

“Good intentions are one thing. Habits are another. Two steps forward and one step back. Do you think because we decided to change our ways, stop hiding from the world and embrace it, that it simply just happened? Life is never so easy, is it?”

Well chosen keywords? I haven't a clue. It's lost in the US, so maybe word of mouth in the UK. Last I checked it was sat at 102 in Fantasy, but that fluctuates. Having it in Unlimited certainly helps with being a newbie, and its priced low so people are more willing to take a chance. Thanks for the offer, Jamie. I may take you up on it. Good luck with yours and the marketing.
Thanks a lot. I'm glad yours is doing so well. How do you think you are getting readers then?Let me know if you want any feedback on your second book. Good luck with it!

Your cover is fantastic. Sits in the genre but still stands out. Excellent work. Really pleased for you, Jamie. By the time it's released I'll be at the Beta stage - maybe further - with my second. Plenty of time free to read it.
I didn't think about any of that stuff with mine, but its doing ok without it. I have no doubt yours will be the success it deserves to be. I enjoyed what I've read so far.
Hi, thanks. I've just set it up as an ebook on pre-order:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Torics-Dagge...
Next move will be to try to get some reviews/ do some marketing.
Congratulations, Jamie. I look forward to seeing it published. Will it be available as an e-book?SJ
