John Gwynne studied and lectured at Brighton University. He has played double bass in a rock 'n' roll band, packed soap in a soap factory and dug ditches for a landscaping crew. He is the author of the epic fantasy series The Faithful and the Fallen, consisting of Malice, Valour, Ruin and Wrath, the Of Blood and Bone trilogy and the Bloodsworn Saga. He is married with four children, seven goats, five sheep, three dogs, three horses and three ducks, and lives in East Sussex, where he is part of a Viking re-enactment group. When not writing or running around after his wife and her ever-growing collection of animals, he can occasionally be found standing in a shield wall with his three sons about him.
A great read that accelerates the pace and goes one up on its excellent predecessor. The characters also grow with the story, finding peril at every turn and few clear choices. Exciting, action-packed fantasy -- Mark Lawrence on <i>A Time of Blood</i> This book is so damned good . . . John Gwynne writes fantasy with the heart of a hero and the inventiveness of a master mage -- Sebastien de Castell on <i>A Time of Blood</i> This is extraordinarily good, an epic feat of the imagination. In this series, Gwynne is setting a new benchmark in fantasy. I’d love to see it on screen -- Giles Kristian on <i>A Time of Blood</i> A riveting sequel, full of rousing, cinematic action that propels a wonderfully absorbing story -- James Islington on <i>A Time of Blood</i> Reminds me of why I became a fantasy enthusiast in the first place -- Robin Hobb on <i>A Time of Dread</i> Great evils, conflicted heroes, bloody battles, betrayal and giants riding battle bears! What’s not to love? -- Peter Newman on <i>A Time of Dread</i>
