My big hope is that people enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them. They're all contemporary fantasies packed with humour, thrills, twists and adventure. It's completed and published now, but I don't think any of the original book survived the process! As I said, I would have finished it sooner, but life got in the way. In 2010, I decided it was time to finish Dark Tidings, the book that I had started many years earlier (writing not reading). In the middle of it all, I served in the Naval Reserve. However, I needed a career which would pay the bills, so for many years, I worked in the computer industry in a wide variety of roles including programming, systems analysis and sales. I have always been intrigued by words and writing, so writing a novel has been a lifelong dream. Dark Tidings, The Black Conspiracy and A Darker Shade of Black make up the trilogy. My books live under the tagline ‘ancient magic meets the Internet’. My name is Ken Magee and I tell people I write contemporary fantasies which blend adventure and humour with technology and magic. I hide behind the pretence that I write fiction to ensure I don't attract unwelcome attention deadly attention.

My one mission in life is to open people’s eyes to that fact. Dark conspiracies and ancient magic actually dominate this world. Most folk believe that technology rules their lives.
