Welcome
I’m Mark Latham (no, not that one): I write fiction of the weird, fantastical, dark and sometimes historical kind. I design tabletop games along those same lines. I used to edit White Dwarf magazine (cool, right?). I also bake bread, sing (kinda), and get walked regularly by a gigantic hound, but that’s probably not why you’re here.
For information on my books and games, check out the links above. For more about me, click below.
One of the best pieces of science fiction literature to come out this year.
The Elder Scrolls: Call To Arms is really something special, and if you’re into the original series and interested in wargaming, this should be a no-brainer.
Victorian London comes alive in ways that even Conan Doyle couldn’t imagine.
Sherlockians are in for a treat.
A terrific follow up to the excellent Lazarus Gate.
Great fun, mixing elements of Sherlock Holmes and H.P. Lovecraft, James Bond and H.G. Wells.
Latham mixes cultism, ghosts, and modern photography with great skill, and his bleak ending gave me goosebumps.
The best of this volume is “The Cuckoo’s Hour” by rising pastiche star Mark A. Latham.
A story with a scale somehow intimate and epic at the same time.
