Carl Rackman

Hi! I'm Carl Rackman, a British former airline pilot turned author. I spent my working life travelling the world and this has given me a keen interest in other people and cultures. I've drawn on my many experiences for my writing. I write suspense thrillers with a grounded science-fiction theme. I like reading novels that feature atmospheric locales and I enjoy complex, absorbing storylines combined with rich, believable characters, so that's the sort of fiction I write. I try to create immersive worlds for the reader to explore, and characters who are more than just vehicles for the story. I come from a naval military background and have held a lifelong interest in military history and seafaring - all my books usually contain some of these elements! I hope you'll enjoy my books and leave reviews. I try to personally thank reviewers if they've particularly enjoyed my books. Find out more about me, my writing and my upcoming books at rackmanbooks.com. You can usually find me on Twitter - @CarlRackman - I'd love to link up with you as followers. Thanks for looking, Carl
