About the author
Note about the author. Will Forster-Gordon was born in the North East of England and received a very basic education leaving school at fifteen. Imbued with a very vivid imagination and with an interest in all things esoteric and other worldly including the occult, much of the useless information gained over his lifetime has gone into his novels. He served in the British Army until retiring after receiving an injury. After leaving the Army he then worked as a heavy goods driver until joining the Civil Service. He then took early retirement and trained as a Shiatsu practitioner operating his practice for over twenty years until the Covid virus outbreak with all its attendant restrictions curtailed his ability to practice. He has been happily married for over fifty years with two fine sons. He was very active in a sporting sense until knee problems curtailed these pursuits which included Aikido, soccer and long distance running. He and his wife ran a very successful Role Playing and War Games shop for many years and much of his inspiration and ideas stem from participating in and running Role Playing Games with friends. He was also involved with a local UFO group having seen some unexplained phenomena himself.
