Andy's novels have received critical acclaim for their epic globetrotting scope and non-stop thrills, described as "pulse-racing adventure" (Northern Echo) with action scenes that "explode off the page" (Daily Express), while Andy himself has been called "a new master of the genre" (Le Figaro) and "a writer of rare cinematic talent" (Daily Express). He was also a nominee for the debut Wilbur Smith Award for adventure writing. A former journalist and movie critic, Andy was the editor of numerous magazines including DVD Review and the iconoclastic film publication Hotdog, and has also written for the acclaimed sci-fi comic 2000AD. He is now a full-time author. Born in Halifax, when not travelling the world researching his books he lives in Bournemouth with his wife and son.
