Ben Berwick was born in the 1980s and moulded by the 1990s. A lover of all things Nintendo, Ben has proudly introduced his daughter to the wonders of Pokemon and Super Mario!

Ben grew up in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, surviving school and working in office environments for a number of years, whilst dabbling with fan fiction. Over the years he has moved to Essex, where he lives with his wife and daughter, and ditched the office for retail sales, something he is more naturally suited for. Whilst doing this, Ben's love of sci-fi has never waned - Star Trek, Star Wars and Doctor Who are big influences, whilst on the literary front, David Weber's Honorverse and the works of Peter F Hamilton have shaped how he approaches writing.

Alongside sci-fi, Ben has a keen enjoyment of Formula 1 motor racing, and likes to mention he lived in the same town as Lewis Hamilton (though he never met Lewis). Ben is an avid Liverpool FC fan, for his sins.
