Since the Reckoning, Charlie wanted nothing to do with his fellow man. 95% of the population had died. The survivors, sank into a life of depravity and debauchery, far removed from Civilization. They spread misery everywhere! Women and children sold on a slavers block to the highest bidder, or the sickest pervert. It was a way of life Charlie abhorred, preferring to live a lonely existence in a valley on the Welsh border, a valley he called Solace. That was until he saw Ann.
He loved her once, even in the madness. Looking through his rifle scope, she was there. Twenty other women with her, dragged along behind carts, a rope around their necks, on their way to the slave block. Two minutes later, eight men and a horse lay dead. He felt bad about killing the horse.
It isn't long before Ann tells him he is a father, his daughter sold on to a pervert. With the women he has freed, he sets off to rescue her, freeing other women as they come across them. Before long he is the head of a crusading army of free women, wreaking vengeance across the land, leaving a trail of death and destruction behind them. It is a far cry from his solitary life in the valley, from the peace and solitude he enjoyed there. It was not a fight against slavery any more; if the human race was to survive and recuperate from the reckoning, a return to a civilized society must be found.
Things changed in 2007 when I suffered a heart attack which effectively ended my working life. My first computer back in 1988 was an old Amstrad word processor that allowed me to take work home from the office without the need of a ream of paper and white correction fluid. All I needed was a small three inch disc that fitted quite nicely into my pocket. It made letter writing so much easier and renewed my interest in writing although at that time I didn't pursue it.
I have had a large and varied working life to give me inspiration. I was a seaman for three years in my teenage years; I worked as a bus conductor on leaving the sea to raise a family before training as a plasterer and working in the building industry. A telecommunications factory offered better pay and conditions so I moved into the production of telephone exchanges for six years until securing a job in BT for seventeen years until made redundant in 1992. Ultimately I worked as a private hire taxi driver until illness forced me to stop.
I am twice married with 3 children of my own (all grown up and flown the coup now) and 3 step children (also flown away). My present wife Gillian is a rock to me and who without her support and encouragement these books may never have been finished for publication. So if you don't like them blame her not me.
The heart attack changed my life. I had to find something to occupy my mind and soon decided the best thing I could do was write. I readily admit I am not and probably never will be the most gifted writer in the world but as an exercise in keeping the old grey matter in working order it cannot be surpassed.
All my work is ready for
