2015 - off to a running start
Sorry not to have written a blog for so long, but I've been away writing the next book in The Clifton Chronicles series. I came back to the most hectic schedule in the run-up to the global publication of MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD in a week's time. The last ten days before publication are always filled with interviews and promotions that, strangely, I still enjoy.
After I've finished the round of T

A work of genius.... totally unputdownable. This is nothing less than a masterpiece. It looks at the period leading up to World War Two as seen through a young man’s eyes and later as a more mature man. He believes Hitler will take over Austria, so fle ...more |

| On the whole, I’m not really a fan of sporting biographies. The modern ones tend to be quite dry and what these ‘heroes’ have achieved doesn’t always add up to much. But then you’ve got someone like Zátopek. In the 1952 Olympics, he won both the 5000 ...more | |

| When it says, “most decorated”, it’s no joke. He won three Military Crosses, three Croix de Guerre, a Légion d’Honneur and a Papal knighthood. During the Second World War, he was behind enemy lines for four years and never slept in the same bed for m ...more | |

| It’s very difficult for me to be objective about Dickens because I’m such a huge fan. I’ve read everything he wrote and a lot of the stuff that’s been written about him. The reason I settled on the Ackroyd book – as opposed to the countless other bio ...more | |

| Just think about what this man had gone through. It would have been so easy for him to come out of prison and say, “Let chaos rule! Let’s give as good as we got!” In fact, he did the exact opposite. He said, “Let’s be kind to each other. Let’s try to ...more | |

| In the UK, we’re used to seeing the Great War through the eyes of the Allied Forces, but Remarque’s novel tells the story of a German private on the front line. It’s a very moving account of the deprivation and hardship he goes through, and reminds u ...more | |

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
