Author Information

Brian Landers' history of the American and Russian empires, Empires Apart, was described by the Midwest Book Review as a remarkable, scholarly, and educational read. Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin now perfectly illustrate the author's thesis that visions of imperial grandeur have been recurrent themes in US and Russian history. Landers has now turned to fiction. The author helped a former Director General of Defence Intelligence and a motley collection of ex-spooks set up a political research unit in the City of London. The Dylan series of thrillers illustrates how the the world of espionage has changed since then. Educated at Exeter University and London Business School Brian Landers has lived in South and North America and various parts of Europe and has worked across the world from Lebanon to El Salvador. He was awarded an OBE in the 2018 Queen's Birthday Honours List.
