Gabriel Timar

I write to entertain my readers and myself, although unintentionally hide my outrageous philosophy behind the fast paced action.

All my novels start with the creation of  a character. Then I set his/her destiny, and drop him/her into realistic surroundings even if the story is a science fiction, taking place in the future or at a distant galaxy. From here on, I just guide my characters through their obstacle course to the end. Strangely, my heroes or heroines relate to the setting of the novels much better than I do. This is understandable, as I write in the early two thousands and they usually live in the nineteen hundreds, or in the late twenty-first century.

Although I admire the style and the writings of John Masters, Nicholas Monsarrat, Robert Ruark, and Jean-Pierre Hallet, I follow my own path to fame or oblivion. The destiny lies with you, the reader.
