Marshall Buckley is the Author of The Long Second series of novels, an Urban Fantasy trilogy set in the present time.
The first book in the series, The Long Second, was published on Amazon’s Kindle in June 2011, with other formats available shortly after.
The second of the trilogy, Broken, was published in July 2011 and the final part (as yet untitled) will be published in 2012.
An addition novel – Adam’s Game – unrelated to the series was also published in July 2011.
Marshall Buckley lives near London, UK and in Newfoundland, Canada. At the same time. He has a total of 5 children, three dogs, three cats and six very small fish. He is not as tired as you might imagine because he achieves all this by being two people.
In March 2009 an innocent-looking Facebook post stated “I’ve an idea for a book, who wants to help me write it?” and, after a flurry of posts and emails, Marshall Buckley was born; very soon after, the result (which bears only a passing resemblance to that original idea) was The Long Second.
With no publishing experience to speak of (one half of Marshall Buckley works in the computer games industry while the other is an IT Professional), The Long Second was sent out to the world in full confidence of securing an agent and a publisher in a matter of days. By some good fortune, the first was actually achieved very quickly; the second…
Marshall Buckley now has a full two years’ worth of publishing experience but is no closer to understanding the mysteries of the industry.
