About the Book
'Tinker Tales Untold' is a collection of previously unpublished stories celebrating magic and motorcycles. Tinker is the son of an absentee Irish gypsy dad and a Scottish mum, raised poor and hitting the streets after her death in his early teens. Becoming a trader in old iron ponies, he falls in with Magic John and survives a sorcerer's apprenticeship to that gutter mage (as described in the previous collection, 'Tinker Tales'). Now he frequents a pub in Faerhame, tangles with ghosts, demi-gods, and demons... life isn't easy for a biker dabbling in magic.
About the Author
Scottish by birth, anarchist by persuasion, odd bikes and obscure comics by collection. Retired from thirty years of front line child protection, he lives between Scotland and British Columbia with wife, three adult sons, and a blessing of grandchildren. Allan has penned reportage, articles, and fiction since the early eighties for variety of motorcycle magazines: ‘Canadian Biker’, ‘Back Street Heroes’ (GB), ‘Biker’ and ‘Renegade’ (USA). Poke and Uber have their real life counterparts in his stable, and the most recent build is a ‘31/’48 Chout (Chief/Scout) bobber. As for the magic…? Well, that’s really up to you.
