★★★★★ - "a brilliantly-executed concept of fantasy archaeology"
Sound good? It's a whole trilogy! You can read it! It's got airships and tomb raiding and magic and stuff!

I forgot that I put a musical combination lock in this book. Quite a good idea now that I think about it.
Sometimes I think my writing is just a vehicle to explore the weird bits of semi-magical technology that keep sprouting in my brain.

My marketing process:
1. "I should make a witty book post"
2. have no ideas
3. stare at screen for half an hour
4. give up
5. wonder why I don't sell many books
6. repeat
...anyway I write books, they're quite good, read them if you want I guess

look you don't *have* to buy a book but if you did it would be very satisfying just saying

I think all my Boiling Seas books are good. But they *get better.*
Nightingale is far more fun than Blackbird - thanks to Lily! It's like if Han Solo only turned up in Empire. And Owl is just epic.
So please don't just read book 1. The Boiling Seas only get deeper.

My protagonists commit crimes for very good reasons. It's the people they commit them *against* who are the real wrongdoers...

My books are now available at the British Library.
(well the catalogue still isn't up to date after that cyberattack in 2023 so you can't actually *search* for them...)
Only took 2 years - The Singer is still being processed! Now I need to send them Owl...

#JuneWorldbuilders Day 12 - MC clothes
Tal and Lily have bog-standard clothes. Max also has her formal scholar's robes from the Lantern; nice and red, gold trim, high collar, the works.
... I was subconsciously thinking of Time Lord robes wasn't I? Just lose the headdress.

#JuneWorldbuilders Day 9 - Snippet - 'Hat'
Ah, the Vagabond Three. Had them as secondary villains for the original second act of 'Owl', but had to cut their whole bit for space/time. A shame - they were very creepy to write. Maybe I'll bring them back later...
