edit data

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.

Uneven mix of throwaway and more enduring fare. Some of the layout is bewildering, which is fairly unfortunate for a publisher this tenured. The Blade story is exceptionally poor, sadly.

Devoured this pulpy revenge thriller in a few sittings. Jordan’s a pacy author with a keen intuition for solid characters and breakneck plotting. (There is one thread still dangling, but I’ll let it go.)
