GARRY KILWORTH!

Garry Kilworth has been writing short-stories and novels for nearly forty years. A Yorkshireman who went walkabout from the age of two, he loves to travel the world with a pack on his back and his wife Annette by his side.

Since the publication of his first novel - 'In Solitary' - he has written sf, fantasy, children's fiction and - as Garry Douglas - a series of historical war novels.


He is the recipient of both a British Science Fiction Award and World Fantasy Award, both for the same story, 'The Ragthorn' written in collaboration with a Rob Holdstock. He has also been twice shortlisted for the children's Carnegie Medal award and won the Lancashire 'Children's Book of the Year Award' (which is judged by kids so pleases him immensely).

I love his collection that Humdrumming put out a few years ago.

A hugely talented writer. And he wrote the novelisation of the film 'Highlander' under the pseudonym Garry Douglas...

I knew...I'd missed something. I thought it was Daniel O'Mahoney and I don't know where I got that idea from....My daughter, Heather, was named after the character in the film/book.
