about me

Hi,

I'm 31 years old and live in the Scottish capital, Edinburgh.

As far back as I can remember, I've always enjoyed creative writing, especially within the horror genre.

During my last year at high school, a short story that I'd written became very popular to the extent that people were requesting a follow up and over the following year a total of five short story sequels were written to meet demand.

After those however, I just wrote as a hobby and only a few select people saw the final products.

In 2006, I turned my attention more fully to my writing and re-drafted two of my favourite stories into a book format.

I can be emailed at adam_shiels@hotmail.com

Please note, although Genoicde is still available to read it is now undergoing some editing so a newer version should hopefully appear over the next few weeks.

favourite books

The Dark Tower series - Stephen King
The Stand - Stephen King
The Alex Cross series - James Patterson
The Shannara series - Terry Brooks
The Foundation series - Isaac Asimov

Pure Evil Unleashed... A Virus With No Cure... A Hidden Government... An Unspeakable War... Mankind Facing Extinction...


The spread of a virus with no cure instigates the beginning of a war with an enemy that only a select few know exist. Against the backdrop of both the worst and most important war that Mankind has ever fought, an evil figure moves with its own agenda. It is looking for someone and it won't stop until it has found and killed them.

I've never read a pirate story before so I have nothing to really compare to but I was throughly engrossed by this. It was very easy to get pulled into the scenes and the charcters. Just as an fyi, in chap 7 during the tasks scene, you have them sliding about like their drunk. Should that not be ... view book

Other than a few typos scattered about this is a very good book imo. I was instantly pulled into the day to day lives of Alexander and his family. I found the chapters easy to read and the descriptions clearly painted an almost cinematic quality. Kind regards, Adam. view book

It's been a long time since I read the original classic but after reading the first two chapters here I'm drawn in enough to want to continue reading. The story so far feels right and that's always a good thing for any sequel to be able to capture the feel of the original. I'm looking forward... view book
