About the author

Jake Houstoun

<p>Jake Houstoun was born in London and grew up in Bangor, Northern Ireland, before graduating in History and International Relations from Exeter University. You will hear a lot more about these two subjects if you are ever unfortunate enough to catch Jake in the pub. He has been noticeably absent from his home country for the last few years, travelling through India, Latin America and Australia, picking up &#8220;odd jobs,&#8221; along the way in iron mines, naval shipyards and accounting departments. From a young age, Jake adored reading fantasy novels through the early morning and watching sci-fi movies with his grandad late into the night. He has been writing novels part-time for the last seven years, combining a gritty fantasy writing style with a grounded sci-fi universe, but has held off releasing the first book in his planned &#8220;Apocalypse&#8221; series until now. Jake is currently working on his next title in the series while teaching English in Japan, with the goal of one day writing full time.
