    What age range would you say it’s for

      Well, there’s a fair bit of violence and bad language in them and the first book has some sexual scenes (although not many and after that they drop off to almost 0 for book 2). I’d say it would be similar to a 15/18 certificated film in the UK. So if they’re mature enough to be okay with the content then anything over that age should be fine.

    Recently discovered your books on Amazon. I powered through Crimes Against Magic, Born of Hatred and Infamous Reign in a week, which is huge for me considering I have a 3 1/2 year old and 10 month old constantly in my face. Love your books and can’t wait for the next one!

    I bought your books off of Audible and I think so far they are great.
    Gives me something good to read in between the Dresden Files.
    Thank you

    I don’t normally write these kind of things, but wanted to let you know how much I am enjoying your books. I read a lot, and have gone through a lot of dross to be surprised and blown away by these. Your characters have a great depth – even the peripheral ones – and the story is well paced and totally captivating. Really hard to put down. Keep writing. It’s hard to find writers where it is worth waiting for the next installment and you just made my list.

    I have an hour drive to work so 2 hours total a day. My husband had me download the audio for your Crimes against Magic. Now I hate when my hour is up and have to get out of the car and work! Starting the 2nd book today. Excellent adventure!

    Cheers from Germany (Amazon kindle made it all posiible for me 🙂 )

    I have devoured all of your books thru Lies Ripped Open. Please, please tell me when the next installment is due out. I am so thankful to have found this thru Amazon Kindle Unlimited. I love the mix of history with mythology. And the description of Camelot as a real place.

    Just wantednto let you know that I really enjoyed the 5 main books having ploughed through them in a month. Fantastic mix of multiple mythologies (any plans to include Norse given references to dwarves?) Whilst maintaining a modern feel and riveting pace. Want to learn more abiutbso many other characters which demonstrates an excellence of writing style. So glad you are working on these full time now so the books will be dne even quicker. Keep it up Steve and see you around the West Quay.

    Loving these books so far. I’m about 75% of the way through Lies Ripped Open. Your books and world are great. I cannot wait to read the next one, when it’s out. This is the kind of Urban Fantasy that I LOVE reading and would happily read & consume anything you put out there!!

    I’m about to read the 5th book in the Hellequin series. The first 4 were excellent. Is the 5th book the last for this series or are you writing more books?

    I love your books and will pre-order the next 15 you write!! Please don’t keep your loyal fans waiting for book 7 for too long!! It took me all of 1 month of reading to be completely captivated by your character Nathaniel Garret, and I only want more. Your writing is brilliant, and I hope you become rich within your wildest dreams so you keep writing!!

    Awesome read. I re-read all five books in anticipation of starting the sixth. Wish I waited for all the books to come out before I started reading. That way I wouldnt have to wait to read them all.

    I just finished scorched shadows. First: so good!!!

    But, I’ve read a glimmer of hope and I feel like I’m missing a big chunk of story between the end of one and the beginning of the other. Am I missing a book or novella? Help!!
