H.M.Read and his brother C.J.Holden grew up with funny-shaped dice, teetering stacks of paperbacks, and heads full of dragons, starships, and worlds that never were. They have been dreaming ever since, toppling empires, summoning heroes with dodgy habits, and remembering to eat only when the story paused.


Their sci-fi debut, Feral Bloom, wrestled with the horrors of philosophy. C.J.Holden is currently working on his solo novel Embassy (Book One): Bitter Tides, which sails into high fantasy seas, where politics bite harder than orcs and maps lie through their teeth.


Book Two is also on its way.


H.M.Read is currently working on his second novel, a dark scifi, steampunk horror, and he is also working on a home invasion horror.
