David Pilling is a writer and researcher, addicted to history for as long as he can remember. The medieval era has always held a fascination for him, perhaps because he spent much of his childhood exploring the misted ruins of castles in Wales. He also has an interest in the Byzantine Empire, the post-Roman period in Britain and the British & Irish Civil Wars.

David is a prolific author and has written and published a number of series and stand-alone tales. These include his first published novel, Folville’s Law, which chronicled the adventures of Sir John Swale in the last days of the reign of Edward II of England. This was followed by The White Hawk series, set during the Wars of the Roses, a six-part Arthurian series, and many more. He has also co-written two high fantasy novels with his good friend, Martin Bolton.
