Edit: smashed the novel, smashed the sequel, and there will now be two more, but I'm currently working on another more experimental epic.

My first full-length novel. My previous four books, not counting short-stories, have always fallen short of 50,000 words. I hope that this one will come to exceed 100,000, and be the first of a planned trilogy. Given the length, the genre here is epic fantasy, the stories of twelve point-of-view characters across five civilisations and thousands of years. I'm currently about 20,000 in, so wish me luck!(less)

Exactly what you'd expect from a Langdon story.

There's an awful load of mystical/conspiracy nonsense which you have to suspend your disbelief and accept in order for the plot to make sense, and it's a real effort at times. I always wondered why peop

“The ruby at Melisandre's throat gleamed red. "It is not those foes who curse you to your face that you must fear, but those who smile when you are looking and sharpen their knives when you turn your back. You would do well to keep your wolf close beside you. Ice, I see, and daggers in the dark. Blood frozen red and hard, and naked steel. It was very cold."
"It is always cold on the Wall."
"You think so?"
"I know so, my lady."
"Then you know nothing, Jon Snow," she whispered.”
