Tom is the author of fifteen books of fantasy, SF and historical fiction – including the Twilight Reign series, The God Fragments and his latest series, The Devil Diaries. After a degree in International Relations he went straight into publishing where he still works. He never received the memo about suitable jobs for writers and consequently has never been a kitchen-hand, hospital porter, pigeon hunter, or secret agent. He lives in Oxford, isn’t one of those authors who gives a damn about the history of the font used in his books and only believes in forms of exercise that allow him to hit something.

Alexander Halford is a surrealist fiction writer based in Wapping, London, where the tides, cobbled streets and slow river light have become quiet companions to his creative life. A physicist by training and a tech professional by trade, he arrived at fiction by a wonderfully unlikely route—what began as a sudden spark of curiosity grew into a full creative pursuit.

His debut novel, Venus in Chains, blends his fascination with philosophy, the human mind, and the hidden codes behind human behaviour. First drafted at his favourite window table in a small café overlooking the docks, the book carries the imprint of that landscape: still water, changing skies, and the sense that meaning can be uncovered in the ordinary if you look long enough.

Influenced strongly by the psychological richness of Russian writers such as Nabokov, Dostoevsky and Turgenev, Alexander approaches fiction as an excavation of inner worlds. He is currently working on his second novel, which continues this journey through themes of identity and self.

Callum M. Brooks is the author of the Rise of Tyrants epic fantasy series. A lifelong fantasy reader, he spent years devouring novels before deciding it was time to bring the stories in his own imagination to life.

That decision became Rise of Tyrants, a project that took over twelve years to complete. The first novel, Whispers of War, was released in March 2025 to widespread praise from readers, followed just twelve months later by the second installment, Tides of an Avalanche. Together, the series has received outstanding reader reviews and is rapidly approaching one million Kindle page reads.

Book Three is currently in development, with publication planned for late 2026 or early 2027.

Set across multiple kingdoms and told through a rich cast of interconnected characters, Rise of Tyrants is a dark epic fantasy grounded in realism, where political intrigue, brutal warfare, impossible choices, and the consequences of ambition shape the fate of nations. As an uneasy peace begins to fracture and an ancient prophecy stirs, every decision has the power to change the world.
