Bio: Roger Taylor was born in Heywood, Lancashire, England and now lives in the Wirral. He is a chartered civil and structural engineer, a pistol, rifle and shotgun shooter, instructor/student in aikido, and an enthusiastic and loud but bone-jarringly inaccurate piano player. Ostensibly fantasy, his fiction is much more than it seems and has been called ‘subtly subversive’. He has published twelve novels, originally published bu Headline Book Publishing in the UK.
