Matthew Ward

About the Author

Matthew Ward is a writer, cat-servant and owner of more musical instruments than he can actually play (and considerably more than he can play well). He’s afflicted with an obsession for old places — castles, historic cities and the London Underground chief among them — and should probably cultivate more interests to help expand out his author biography.

After a decade serving as a principle architect for Games Workshop’s Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 properties, Matthew embarked on an adventure to tell stories set in worlds of his own design. He lives near Nottingham with his extremely patient wife — as well as a pride of attention-seeking cats — and writes to entertain anyone who feels there’s not enough magic in the world.
