About the Author

Gareth Brown is the author of the international bestseller The Book of Doors. He wanted to be a writer from a very young age, and he completed his first novel as a teenager. For the last twenty years he has worked in the UK Civil Service and the National Health Service while writing in his spare time. When not working or writing, Gareth loves travelling, especially the whirlwind first few hours in a new city and long road trips through beautiful landscapes. He enjoys barbecues, patisseries, playing pool, and falling asleep in front of the television like an old man. Gareth lives with his wife and two impudent and highly excitable Skye terriers near Edinburgh in Scotland.

"The Book of Doors has everything -- magic books, fascinating time loops, dreadful villains and likeable protagonists. Yet this is no children's book, this is a book aimed squarely at adults. It's clever, fast-paced and so very, very dark. I absolutely loved it."
-- M. W. CRAVEN, author of the Washington Poe series
