This is the website of Nick Marsh – science fiction author, veterinary surgeon, and self-confessed geek (well, okay, he’s had to confess it due to the number of people who have told him that he is one) 

The website mainly contains information about Nick's writing career - his biography, his books, reviews and so on. If you're interested in his veterinary life, or want to check more up-to-date information, then feel free to have a peek...
