Packin' Heat

Mike Brooks is the author of The God-King Chronicles epic fantasy series (THE BLACK COAST, THE SPLINTER KING and THE GODBREAKER); the Keiko series of grimy space-opera novels (DARK RUN, DARK SKY and DARK DEEDS); and various works for Games Workshop’s Black Library imprint, including BRUTAL KUNNIN, ALPHARIUS: HEAD OF THE HYDRA, and THE LION: SON OF THE FOREST. He was born in Ipswich, Suffolk, and moved to Nottingham to go to university when he was eighteen, where he still lives with his wife, cats, and snakes. He worked in the homelessness sector for fifteen years before going full-time as an author, plays guitar and sings in a punk band, and DJs wherever anyone will tolerate him. He is queer, and partially deaf (no, that occurred naturally, and a long time before the punk band).
