I've always known he was destined for better things than working in an office for a major building society, the guy designed his own version of Monopoly when he was a kid based on our home town of Halifax called Tomonopoly (His name is Tom just in case you didn't get that ) and despite only being 25, he's probably the cleverest person I know!
Almost a year later and tonight he sent me the start of his latest novel, kind of a sequel/spin off to the one I mentioned here, featuring a minor character of the first novel as one of the main characters here.
Once again, I'm absolutely engrossed in the story and also a little annoyed that he sent me it before it is finished (it was only 27 pdf pages long) as I really wanna know how the story turns out.
