Steve's been writing from an early age, his first completed story was done in an English lesson. Unfortunately, after the teacher read it, he had to have a chat with the head of the year about the violent content and bad language. The follow up 'One boy and his frog' was less concerning to his teachers and got him an A.
It wasn't for another decade that he would start work on a full length novel, the result of which; Crimes Against Magic is now available.
He was born in a small village called Mexbrough, South Yorkshire, but now lives with his wife and three young daughters in Southampton.

Steve McHugh recommends
The Last Shield (2024)
Cameron Johnston
"Not only a fantasy-Die Hard, but also a tale about coming to terms with yourself. Briar is a magnificent heroine, and few people write villains as good as Cameron."
The Lore of Prometheus (2018)
Graham Austin-King
"Captivating and action-packed, an urban fantasy that's hard to put down!."
Boundary Crossed (2015)
(Boundary Magic, book 1)
Melissa F Olson
"Fun and interesting characters, a brilliant new heroine, and a plot that will have you gripped until the very end. The start of an excellent series."
