S.J.Martin- Author Bio
I have loved history from a very early age reading dozens of historical novels in my teens. This interest not only influenced my academic choices at university but also my life choices and careers. I spent several years with my trowel in the world of archaeology before finding my forte as a storyteller in the guise of a history teacher. I wanted to encourage young people to find that same interest in history that had enlivened my life.
I always wanted to write historical fiction. The opportunity came when I left education; I then gleefully re-entered the world of engaging and fascinating historical research into the background of some of my favourite historical periods.

I make a point of pausing in my own writing every afternoon to read for an hour. I also intend to read Simon Scarrow's latest book in the Eagle Series, which shows fantastic characterisation in his books. Funny and poignant.(less)

"I swore I would not pick up this book to read, as there are just too many in the series (35 to date).
What was the point when I would never be able to read them all?
Yet..every time I was at the library, I would wander down the "H" section just to see" Read more of this review »
