Biographie de Christopher Webster

Christopher Webster was brought up in Conisbrough, Yorkshire, which is well-known for its magnificent castle. The castle and its link with England's founding father, Hengest, inspired his interest in the Anglo-Saxon period. His first publication was Poetry Through Humour and Horror. This was followed by many more publications, including a wide range of fiction, drama and poetry and his "masterpiece" pentalogy, English Dawn.
He is married to a Filipina, has four children, and is currently a retired and living in the Philippines.
