First up, Lethbridge-Stewart, The Havoc Files Vol. 4, a collection of short stories featuring the Brigadier and Anne Travers (from The Web Of Fear, and a major character in the Lethbridge-Stewart books (including my forthcoming book The Man From Yesterday). My story, The Runaway […]

Read More DOMINEX INDUSTRIES – KEEP OUT – TRESPASSERS WILL BE DESTROYEDBack in the summer I was offered something big. Something very big and very exciting.

It was so coherent and so good (if I say so myself) that I wrote it up and sent it to a few friends. They all thought I was insane. So it goes. […]

I don’t do many conventions but always enjoy the ones I do attend – especially if I am a guest, […]

Read More BristolCon 201223 November 2013 is the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, and no doubt, right now, plans are being laid to celebrate this milestone. Who knows what these plans are?
