Hello! I’m Greg, a novelist based in Brighton, UK, where I’ve lived for over half my life. Throughout my creative career, I have written print and online magazine articles for news and gaming sites, and created a magazine for Mensa. I also co-produced and co-presented an award-winning gaming show that aired worldwide on Amazon Video. This novel is my first full-length work of fiction and the start of a planned trilogy.

​

The idea for the book came to me in the most clichéd yet heartfelt way: I woke from a dream with the plot and opening chapters fully formed and practically begging me to write them down. One murmured synopsis to my sleepy but supportive partner, and a new passion was sparked. Within days, the story began to develop—and eventually grew into the book you are hopefully considering purchasing.

​

When I’m not writing, you’ll usually find me gaming (video or board — I don’t discriminate) or planning my next adventure abroad with a book in hand. I grew up on a steady diet of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and Terry Pratchett, and more recently I’ve been inspired by Stephen Fry’s wit, Richard Osman’s humour, and — perhaps the most impactful — Aaron Sorkin’s masterful use of language and rhythm on screen.

​

I like to keep my stories sharp, engaging, and a little playful — much like my approach to life. If you enjoy novels that combine suspense, character, and a love of language, I think we’ll get along just fine.
