Mel Keegan
Biography
A self-confessed science fiction and fantasy devotee, Mel Keegan is known for novels across a wide
range of subjects, from the historical to the future action-adventure ... but certainly MK is best
known for the NARC series, featuring iconic characters Jarrat and Stone. Mel lives in South
Australia with an eccentric family.
From 1989 to 2001, GMP Ltd. in the UK issued the Keegan titles, and released eight original
novels plus numerous reprints. In 1999, GMP was bought out -- twice! -- and the final owner of
the old company was a magazine publisher (Millivres Publishing Group) which had, essentially, no
interest in contintuing the old paperback list. In short order the editorial staff was laid off and the
writers were set free...
You'd be surprised at the writers who were suddenly adrift without anchor or rudder! Keegan,
Josh Lanyon, David Patrick Beavers, Chris Hunt, and others. Some of us have clawed our way back
and are rebuilding careers which were badly damaged by the demise of GMP. Regrettably, others
have vanished.
Here's Keegan's current backlist (all titles published via GMP and Alyson, plus those in-the-works
with Millivres at the time of the shut-down, plus all titles issued to date by DreamCraft:

The Swordsman
by Mel Keegan
Price: $10.99 USD. 137930 words. Published by DreamCraft on April 13, 2009. Fiction.
Jack Leigh is a soldier of fortune, far from home. He's a brilliant "sword for hire," but in the dangerous Riverlands dukedom of Rhondia he gets more than he bargained for. Treachery, treason and dark magic swirl in powerful undercurrents; along the canals and in the menacing heart of Nimmenwald forest lurk unimaginable threats: the bo'zhe, barbarians from Saihabara, and an unknowable evil.
