He studied Film and Writing at university, then worked as a freelance copywriter, script-reader and screenplay consultant for the likes of BAFTA, Netflix and the BBC. Then came COVID. During lockdown, he found solace and escape in the fantasy classics from his youth – Tolkien, Martin, Pullman and more – whilst also endeavouring to broaden his horizons through Jordan, Abercrombie, Hobb and Sanderson, to name b ...more

Seeking Impatient People

Two months?? Two whole bloody months until publication?? I can't wait that long to read The Worth of Scars! I want it now! Ever find yourself thinking along these lines? Desperate to read the debut of an unknown author with dubious credentials as soon as possible? Or, do you like to get in early? To be in the know? To be the cool kid who gets their hands on something the filthy shitmunchers out th Read more of this blog post »

Gabriel Farrell and 156 other people liked Mark Lawrence's review of The Wolves of War (The Wolfheart Chronicles, #1): " It's hard to imagine a more John Gwynne book than this one. Wolves, Vikings (abeit injected into Slavic culture in what's now Ukraine), arms, armour, battles in small and large groups, mythic creatures - all the good stuff. And on top of all that, the" Read more of this review »

Gabriel Farrell and 53 other people liked Mark Lawrence's status update Mark Lawrence is on page 180 of 496 of The Wolves of War: I was amused by a bit where one Viking-ish character talks about his "thought cage" - a phrase used A LOT in Gwynne's previous series, and one think that drew some flack. Anyway, two warriors who hear the phrase and question it then call it "stupid" and opine that it could quickly become irritating. Which I thought was some fine meta-humour :)
