The Bastard from Fairyland
He's Robin Goodfellow to those he knows. Or Puck, his psychotic alter-ego, to those he kills. Betrayed, banished and bitter, this fae warrior lives among human beings, they think he’s a demon. The teenagers he’s vowed to protect, despise him. But now the fae need his help, especially the man who betrayed him. He’s brought along Robin’s lover to guarantee his cooperation.
Yet things are not as they seem. For shadowy forces within the fae have different plans. It’s not Robin they want. They need Puck. He's the perfect stooge to kill a king.
What have people said about The Bastard from Fairyland?
"This is effing brutal. There is blood, torture, death and violence. A world savaged by the Fae and under threat of total destruction. I loved it."
"A well-told tale which combines Celtic myth with Arthurian legends, dystopian visions of a world ravaged by climate change and some good old blood and guts battles. Oh, and dragons. What's not to love?"
"Fans of Grimdark books by the likes of Joe Abercrombie and Richard Morgan will not be disappointed by The Bastard from Fairyland."
"The story unfolds at a cracking pace. Characterisation is excellent. The fight scenes are particularly evocative."
Phil Parker
Phil hasn’t stopped writing since his parents bought him a typewriter as a teenager. That is a long time ago, (think fossils). He's written books for Drama teachers (he used to be one) and journalistic articles on education.
Now he's an #indieauthor who writes fantasy novels where British folklore, inter-dimensional portals and broken characters in search of redemption play a big part. His other passion is pizza - it's why he wants to be reborn as an Italian.
