Gary J. Martin writes in the fantasy genre, which he has always loved ever since he was the fifth hobbit, 'No-go', in Lord of the Rings (in his mind). Gary also writes poetry, a sample of which appears in Temple Dark's 'Channel the Dark' anthology. When not writing, Gary enjoys skiing, scuba-diving, playing guitar and bass, and nerding out with his friends during their Dungeons & Dragons sessions. Gary lives in Dublin with his wife and is a co-caregiver to an elderly Shih Tzu named Fibi.
