Hello, I’m Miles. I live in Devon with my wife, children, and cats. I’ve sold houses, fought fires, and even played the part of a postman in a German film. (Yes, really.)

On the words front, I’ve contributed features, reviews, and interviews to the likes of Total Film, SFX, XBox World, SciFiNow, Horrorville, plus loads more. I’ve also written copy on subjects such as holiday insurance, food packaging, and, er, pig farming.

I also play bass guitar (references available).

Now I’ve written a novel. My comedy time travel caper Dad to the Future was first published in 2024. It’s the first in a series revolving around the time-travelling Bill Lambert and his friends, the Harpman family.

Hope you like them.

Miles Hamer liked Kristen Schrader (Wenke)'s review of Deal With The Devil: The FBI's Secret Thirty-Year Relationship With A Mafia Killer: "I got eighty pages in and gave up. This book reads like the index to an encyclopedia. It's worse than a textbook."

Peter Lance might be a fantastic journalist, but on the basis of this, he is a terrible storyteller. A bewildering barrage of facts hurled at the reader with little context, form, or sense of narrative makes for a bitterly frustrating read. Hugely di ...more

Chapter upon chapter of unimaginable depravity. Most disturbing is the sheer mundanity with which evil speaks. Compulsive, repulsive stuff.

A no-frills yet fascinating career rundown from the always likeable grindcore bassist and musician. Fascinating for fans of the scene. Can’t help but fall in love with Shane just a little.
