Robert J. Harris

Bob Harris was born in Dundee, Scotland. He attended St. Andrews University because a) it had a fine reputation for classics and b) it was close enough to Dundee for him to take his laundry home at weekends. He was the first student in 20 years to write Latin poetry as part of his honours course, a fact which has so far failed to impress anyone who gets out more than once a month.

Bob's first solo novel 'Leonardo and the Death Machine' was published in 2005 by Harper Collins. It was translated into several languages and became a best seller in Italy. He followed this with 'Will Shakespeare and the Pirate's Fire,' and, more recently, with The World Goes Loki Trilogy from Floris/Kelpies.

Over the past several years Bob has worked occasionally as a salesman and an actor. Today he regularly works as a professional role-player in assessment and training programmes for large businesses.

When he isn't writing Bob likes to listen to blues and jazz, read, play board games, watch Fred Astaire movies and follow the NFL. He still dabbles in games design, so watch out! He plays squash regularly, tennis irregularly, and really should get back to fencing. He can play two tunes on the harmonica: one is 'Oh Susanna' and the other one isn't.
