edit data

Samuel Griffin is the author of the deep and evocative flintlock fantasy series, ‘The Sentinel Archives’, starting with the debut ‘Seeker’, releasing 2024.

Prior to becoming an author, Samuel worked in several fields, studied many subjects, and has wandered much of the UK. But his wild imagination and playful inquisitiveness always taunted him, and eventually he gave in the fight, allowing himself to be dragged properly into the worlds of his dreams. He’s not looked back since.

Samuel lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, with his partner; who is herself a commercial fiction editor and ghost writer, and their cat, who is not.

Samuel Griffin liked Elena Samitis's review of Seeker (The Sentinel Archives, #1): "Unfortunately was a very difficult read for me. Very difficult language and almost to dialogue made the book a bit boring. Although ending did tie up the story and meaning of some things became more clear still I have expected more fantasy.

Samuel Griffin liked FloopyFloof's review of Seeker (The Sentinel Archives, #1): "Dropped, 100 pages in. 1/3 of the book read. It's a well written story, written from a very historical perspective and, as such, uses a linguistical style found in classics from the time the book is set. It's one that I do want to finish, just not one" Read more of this review »

Samuel Griffin liked Izzy's review of Seeker (The Sentinel Archives, #1): "I loved it but…… I loved it but i feel like its 300 pages to short, I assume the writer had a deadline to achieve and for a debut its very good, the steam punk, world, it pretty cool.

Letting you know I put my review on my Amazon, Facebook, Instagram, Reedsy, LinkedIn, and of course, Goodreads accounts. Facebook and Amazon I'm under Kym Jones Reviews. Instagram and Reedsy are K_K_Jones_Reviewer and LinkedIn is Kymberlee Ku'ualoha Jones. I hope this is okay? Thanks so much Kym! That's an amazing effort. I'm thrilled to have you with me.
