Interviews

I'm a science fiction writer based in Wales. I'm the author of eight novels and many short stories. I've been published since 1990. I spent the twelve years leading up to 2004 as a scientist within the European Space Agency, of which about half that time was spent working on S-Cam, the world's most advanced optical camera. After spending sixteen years in the Netherlands, I have now returned to my native Wales.

My first novel was REVELATION SPACE (2000), which was shortlisted for the BSFA and Arthur C Clarke awards. My second novel, CHASM CITY, won the BSFA award in 2002. A number of my other novels and stories have subsequently been shortlisted for the BSFA and Clarke awards. Two independent short story collections, ZIMA BLUE (US) and GALACTIC NORTH (UK) appeared at the end of 2006. My latest book, HOUSE OF SUNS, appeared in the UK in April. I am now working on a new novel.
