Autorenporträt
Gordon S. Dickson was born near Inverness, Scotland, but left at an early age when his family returned to Northern Ireland. He was educated at secondary and grammar schools, and scraped through English 'O' level, as essay writing was not his strength. He was employed in the civil service for several years but is now retired and has only recently taken up writing novels. An Impossible Quest: A Bartonshire Tale 2 is his latest novel. He enjoys reading several genres of books but mainly historical and detective novels, and gardening.
