Your result for Which fantasy writer are you?...

John Meagher (b. 1968)
15 High-Brow, 5 Violent, 5 Experimental and 15 Cynical!



Congratulations! You are High-Brow, Violent, Experimental and Cynical!

John is author of Tales of the Left Hand, an ongoing fantasy series that John also narrates as an audiobook, releasing chapters as weekly episodes. He completed Book One in early April of 2009 and is currently at work on Book Two.

John has stated that he began Left Hand (TotLH) as a means of giving himself more opportunity to practice reading audiobooks, a professional career he is in the process of pursuing. “But I realized that I was on to something more when one of my friends called me up out of the blue to complain about my cliffhangers. That’s when I thought, ‘Hey…that wasn’t a compliment to my narration, it was a compliment to my writing.’”

John cites Frank Herbert and William Gibson as two of his inspirations. “I’m very fond of Herbert’s style of hearing a character’s inner dialogue, showing how they are considering and responding to the world around them. And Gibson has an amazing capacity for evocatively describing settings and situations in only a sentence or two.”

When asked what people might think of him taking a poor innocent Internet quiz and twisting it to his own self-interest, Mr. Meagher only shrugged. “If it prompts even one person to follow the link and give Left Hand a try, it was worth it.”

The complete episodes of Book One of Tales of the Left Hand can be found here.
