Adrian Tchaikovsky

Adrian Tchaikovsky was born Adrian Czajkowski in Woodhall Spa, Lincolnshire, before heading off to Reading University to study psychology and zoology. This served as natural preparation for a career in law, and he has worked for several firms in the field of civil litigation, both in Reading and now in Leeds. Married, he is a keen gamer, including tabletop, online and live-action. He has trained in stage fighting, and is currently a member of a Leeds-based chapter of a KDF/European Historical Combat Guild group practising western historical martial arts. He is best known for his fantasy series, Shadows of the Apt, and keeps a blog at www.shadowsoftheapt.com where many more stories set in that world can be found.
