Welcome to my world

Hello and a hearty welcome to Ravenstone, my official website.

About Me.
Quick Biography.

At an early age I had always liked writing fiction especially sci fi fiction set in the dark and gritty worlds of a future.
One of my biggest influences regarding dark fiction was Batman. Combined with being an old style fan of star trek. And from there I decided to write fiction based in the ready made world of Warhammer 40,000 created by Games Workshop. The first story I wrote was Crimson Fist: The Necrosphere. The story proved to be very popular and requests were made for a sequel. After some consideration I decided to write the second outing regarding Crimson Fist. The story was named Crimson Fist II: Volcane. This story was different because I began to focus on the other characters involved in the first. The story proved very popular so I finished of the trilogy writing the third story. Crimson Fist III: Skin Of Evil. Later I wrote a few more shorts in the world of warhammer 40,000. Eventually I decided to take a new direction and created my first full story. Chronicles: Victory Denied. The story is set far in the future and sees the destruction of Earth. This is a four part novel based on the survival and progression of the Human Race. The second story Chronicles II: Ommadawn has since been written but still needs finalising. I once again acknowledge requests regarding a finale to my Crimson Fist Trilogy. So with that in mind I wrote Exordium. Though Exordium does sequel from the events of Crimson Fist III: Skin Of Evil its also a step away from the trilogy creating a new story arc. Exordium proved by far to be the most popular story I have written in the set world Of warhammer 40,000.

In the time that’s past I have written a number of stories and began on other projects.

Shortly after I decided I’d like to write a story based on the Dirty Dozen only set I wanted to set it in the future. And thus I created a character I liked Colonel Saul Rybok.  The story title Rybok’s Rat Pack. After the first story was born it proved very popular and captivated a new profile of readers as well as the old set. I have since written Five Rybok’s Rat Pack stories and also created a spin off stand alone story named Kagen. Currently I’m working on a sixth Rybok story this should be finished within the year.

After four years I also decided to tie up the loose ends left in Exordium so with that I’ve currently begun work on the sequel. Purgatory’s Shadow. The story is set 52 years after the events of Exordium.

I live with my wife Elizabeth and four children Symphony, Serenity, Sebastian and Gabriel.

Much of what I read is based in the warhammer 40,000 world simply because the fiction from BL appeals to me more so than anything else at the moment.

 

The Ravenstone Website was born in 2003 and has been revamped three times to keep up to date.
I believe in change after all I only go forwards and not backwards. History belongs in the past.
