David Waine was born in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, in 1949. He is the youngest of three brothers, all of whom went on to become teachers like their father. It was during his teaching career that he developed an interest in writing, initially plays, and his adaptation of Shakespeare's 'Macbeth' was performed at the Cockpit Theatre in London (the forerunner of Shakespeare's Globe) as part of the Globe Theatre restoration in 1991. He took up novel writing after leaving the profession, and his first published work, The Planning Officers appeared in 2011. He lives with his wife in the foothills of the Pennines.

A King's Head
|
Callin Vorst is the youngest member of the Kingdom's second family. Consumed with his conviction that his father should occupy the throne instead of the current incumbent, Rhomic Vandamm, he strikes a bargain with a creature of myth: the utterly misnamed 'Hag'. Before he can think again, the deal is struck and for him - not for his father. The Hag launches him on a career that will see him knighted and a national hero, triumphing against overwhelming odds - but at a terrible cost. At once he is hero and villain - mighty warrior, gallant knight and secret murderer. It will also place him directly in the path of King Rhomic's beautiful daughter, Princess Avalind. Although they begin in friendship, their relationship is doomed to end in bitter opposition as the Hag exacts her price.
