An author of Black Library who has worked to fill the plotholes of Warhammer Fantasy and develop the Age of Sigmar setting.

He was put in charge of writting the first and fifth novels of The Endtimes (The Return of Nagash and the Lord of the End Times), doing his best to actually bring a decent narrative to what is arguably Games Workshop most controversial action.

After that he has been in charge of fleshing out the Age of Sigmar universe, which has allowed the development of the Stormcast Eternals into quite interesting characters (he brought in some female stormcast, a stormcast who may have been an elf originally and worked to bring some character to Tornus The Redeemed), he is also developing a cast of characters for his stories, allowing for AoS to have its own dramatis personae. His characters come from multiple races and backgrounds, and even his villains - even daemon characters - are actual characters rather than two-dimensional plot devices.

With the Advent of AoS 2.0 he wrote "Soul Wars", reintroducing Balthazar Gelt, making the new Sacrosanct Chamber more human, and pitting Death and Storm against one another in a philosophical debate.

Additionally expanded the fluff for 40k, expanding characters such as Fabius Bile and Trayzn the Infinite.
