Hi Cameron - what an interesting question.

Flammark is a very pretty village indeed. It has a market square, with a clock tower, and a lovely church. St. Jude's is built in the Romanesque style of architecture which attracts visitors from far and wide. They usually end up in the Flammark Arms - an old coaching inn back in the day, it's pink-washed now, for the tourist trade.

And business is good. Flammark is part of a series of 'sites of historical interest' nearby. Its cathedral town, Sandmarsh, can trace its foundation back to pre-Christian times, and ancient Celtic burial sites are a feature of the county's landscape. People love to visit the standing stones and watch the Sandmarsh Pagan Society enact their ceremonies, particularly Samhain, which they celebrate on top of the craggy heights of Seely Tor.

But Flammark is also a very dark place. It is plagued with an ancient, cyclical curse that affects the whole village when certain events align. It makes normal life impossible, and is especially deadly for those the evil has in its sights ...(less)

Werewolf news!

Quite excited to report the second chapter of Domain, my werewolf novel, is available to read on my Substack. (Paywall). https://mordant.substack.com/s/domain

It's a reimagining of the Jane Eyre NOT a mash-up as in Pride, Prejudice and Zombies. And it's set in the modern era. I always thought Rochester was a bit of a beast and after watching the 2010 film WOLFMAN, the idea popped into my head that Read more of this blog post »

I think this is Hanna's debut? If so, what a great start it is! Fab story and some great characters - in particular Muldoon... He's was a real hit with me. If you're into the Edwardian era and enjoy Conan-Doyle, M R James and, of course, the antics o ...more

"I really enjoyed this book. I decided to read it based on its reviews and it did not disappoint. "
When Angels Fear by P.J. Mordant
"Brilliant book, bit of a slow build up but it was worth it in the end.
Once again it was by an author I hadn't read before and not a genre that I
usually go for but it was well written and had some decent characters."
When Angels Fear by P.J. Mordant
