DW Mace

Biography

I'm Dave. I am writing my seventh novel at present; it will also be available as a series of novellas... working on the principle that these days, readers prefer something that is quick to read... say, during a bus journey or whatever.
It is the latest in an ongoing series based on my original Fantasy Trilogy "The Eternal
Watchtower."
The trilogy has been likened to a "Tolkien on Steroids"... but is not populated with Elves and other assorted pointy-eared characters, and traces the chronicled history of a lost race, and their struggles against an overwhelming evil which threatens to destroy their very existence.
It started out as a favour for a friend: (Can you do a fairy tale for the kids)... but eventually topped 400,000 words... hence the transition into a trilogy.
I was born in Gloucestershire and have lived in the county all my life. I grew up surrounded by the myths and legends of "What there might be in the woods"… "What were the things that went "Bump" in the night?"… "Was that really a screech Owl … or something else?" This proved very useful when it came to writing the first book of the Fantasy Trilogy!
The son of a Country Blacksmith; I became a Police Officer, and later joined an International Aerospace Company, employed as an Avionics Quality Inspector.

I hope you enjoy the trilogy and its sequels as much as I enjoy writing them.
