| '''Ian Watson''' is fucking crazy. He's also brilliant. He lives in Spain, spends most of his time at British book conventions and mostly talks at high speed about [[What|esoteric weird stuff that would turn Dan Brown's shit into chalk.]]

| From a [[/tg/|fa/tg/uy]] perspective, he's the bloke who wrote the early Warhammer 40K stuff before Black Library was a thing. He wrote ''[[Space Marine]]'' in 1993, three years after [[Jaq Draco|Inquisitor]], also by Ian Watson (later re-named Draco), and Deathwing. No one had a fucking clue what they where doing, so we get Squats, Zoats and lasgun-wielding Space Marines. We also get Space Marines out-farting each other with their specially engineered arseholes. It's weird. It's amazing. It's totally not canon, whatever the fuck that means.

| Ian has continued to write, of course, and he's got a shelf full of awards for writing weird shit. For example, his recent novel, ''The Beloved of My Beloved'', (co-written with Italian surrealist Roberto Quaglia) features [[Slaaemsh|cloned clitorises, necrophile clones and lots of bum-sex]]. His collection of short stories, The ''1000 Year Reich'', returns to the theme of Space Marines. It's nothing that [[Black Library]] would ever publish.

| He is not [[Aaron Dembski-Bowden]]. Though ADB would be stoked if he was.
