Born and raised in Hungerford, Berkshire, Anthony has always loved writing stories and after many years of enjoying other authors’ works, he has finally decided to try and give something back to the literary world. From an early age, since reading The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien, he has been inspired to write his own stories. He states that his favourite author is David Gemmell and that his style of writing has been inspired by the sadly missed author. Anthony now lives in Wales with his girlfriend Amy and their cat Bruce.

His first novel Whispers of a Storm, is a medieval-styled action adventure. He shares his writing time with adventuring in his new home and working in Barry Library. He is currently working on Shadows of a Storm, the sequel to his first novel.

Whispers of a Storm (AuthorHouse, 2011)

The inhabitants of the Four Vales have enjoyed over fifty years of relative peace, since its armies defeated the Reven Hordes threatening their homeland. Under the fair rule and guidance of the high duke, its people have thrived and prospered, free from the shadows of war. The Vales are peaceful and the capital city Karick is quiet. But in the gardens of the high duke's keep, dark plots are whispered and fell deeds being planned. A humble stonemason falls asleep whilst working in the gardens and upon waking, inadvertently overhears a conversation that plunges him deep into the heart of the coming storm. A young noblewoman is to be kidnapped and used as a pawn in this dark game…

Whispers of a Storm follows the stonemason and noblewoman's fortunes as they unwittingly become involved in a dangerous game of survival, as they try to find out what dark storm is about to break out across the Four Vales. Who would seek to unsettle this harmony? Why would they want to? How can the stonemason and noblewoman discover what is going to happen and more importantly, expose those behind the plot, before it is too late. A tale of political intrigue and high adventure, Book One of The Storm Trilogy follows the fortunes of two individuals, whose personal journey of survival may yet help to save and shape the future of their homeland.
