About the author

Biography

MATT SHAW was born, quite by accident (his mother tripped, he shot out) September 30th 1980 in Winchester hospital where he was immediately placed on the baby ward and EBay. Some twelve years later (wandering the corridors of the hospital and playing with road kill when he was on day release), the listing closed and he remained unsold, he was booted out of the hospital to start his life as a writer and hobbit – beginning with writing screenplays and short stories for his own amusement before finally getting published when he was twenty-seven years and forty-five seconds old.


Once Published weekly in a lad's magazine with his photography work, Matt Shaw is also a published author and cartoonist. Has to be said, can be a bit of a flirt and definitely, without a shadow of a doubt, somewhat of a klutz.

I enjoy all of this author's books. This is a good one to read if you want a good story without the gore and horror.

Another great book by Matt. I definitely didn't see the ending coming .

[Brianna Bello · Rating 4 out of 5]

This one was really good! However, I’m so confused from the beginning of the story and then to the end of the story. What was the beginning about? How did it connect with the end? Either way, really good quick read.
