Brilliant -- Bernard Cornwell Collard . . . evokes the horror of that era with great brio. Enthralling * The Times * Dusty deserts, showdowns under the blistering sun, bloodthirsty bandoleros, rough whisky and rougher men. Bullets fly, emotions run high and treachery abounds in The Lost Outlaw. This is classic Jack Lark in a classic western. Paul Fraser Collard has done it again and delivered another exceptionally entertaining historical action adventure -- Matthew Harffy I love a writer who wears his history lightly enough for the story he' s telling to blaze across the pages like this. Jack Lark is an unforgettable new hero -- Anthony Riches It felt accurate, it felt real, it felt alive. . . Every line every paragraph and page of the battles had me hooked, riveted to the page, there were times when I was almost as breathless as the exhausted soldiers * Parmenion Books * Impossible to put down. . . full of action and intrigue that leaves the reader thirsty for more * History. . . the Interesting Bits * You feel and experience all the emotions and the blood, sweat and tears that Jack does. . . I devoured it in one sitting * Parmenion Books * Expect ferocious, bloody action from the first page. Fast-paced, compelling, and with more villains than a Clint Eastwood classic, this unputdownable novel strongly reminded me of that legend of western writers, Louis L' Amour. A cracking read! -- Ben Kane
Paul' s love of military history started at an early age. A childhood spent watching films like Waterloo and Zuluwhilst reading Sharpe, Flashman and the occasional Commando comic, gave him a desire to know more of the men who fought in the great wars of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. At school, Paul was determined to become an officer in the British Army and he succeeded in winning an Army Scholarship. However, Paul chose to give up his boyhood ambition and instead went into the finance industry. Paul stills works in the City, and lives with his wife and three children in Kent.
