Paul R. Somerville

Born in Burnley, Lancashire, Paul joined the British Army at the age of just 16 and served until 1999, having travelled widely (Norway, USA, Canada, Alaska, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Turkey, Portugal, Denmark, Croatia, Bosnia, Gibraltar) and completing three operational tours in the Former Yugoslavia during the Balkan conflict.

Since leaving the army Paul has worked in a variety of roles and organisations – but moved into Cyber Security, and is now a Principal Consultant for a UK based consultancy. Paul has lived in Malvern, Rugby, Farnham and now resides in Alton, Hampshire, with his two children, a mad-cat, two gerbils and several fish.

Outside of writing and work Paul is an avid supporter of Burnley FC and enjoys walking in the Hampshire and Surrey countryside and taking mini-adventures in his twenty-five year old campervan.

The Stone of Radnor is Paul’s debut novel…watch out for book two.
