Peri asked John Gwynne:

I've almost finished Ruin. Can't recall the last time this genre of book has moved me to joy and tears. The gory scenes and battles seem very real, though the bear eating Intestines almost put me off my lunch. Imagination or research for the details? Thank you for providing me with such a roller coaster thrill of a read.

John Gwynne Hi Peri,

I'm so pleased to hear that you're enjoying Ruin, and thank-you for the kind words, it really means a lot to hear that something I've written has moved you emotionally. You've made my day :) And I can assure you that the scene with the bear and the intestines was all imagination, zero research for that part :) Not sure what that says about my imagination, though!

I hope that you enjoy the rest of the book.

Just for your information, I'm in the closing stages of writing the fourth and final book of the series, titled 'Wrath.'

Thanks again for the kind words.

All the best,

John
