About The Author

Bob Fischer

Bob Fischer is a lifelong science fiction and fantasy fan who has previously enjoyed careers as a record shop owner, a solo singer-songwriter and a short-lived Elvis impersonator (one gig). He now works as a radio presenter for BBC Tees, a job that has led him to spill tea over Jack Charlton’s antique fireplace and sing on a UK Top 10 hit single (‘Bunsen Burner’ by John Otway, No 9 in October 2002). Bob has also won a prestigious Sony Radio Award … just a bronze though, so don’t get too excited.
