Watson lives in London with his wife Nicola and son Charlie.[4] He came up with the idea of writing a fantasy trilogy set in the Iron Age when exploring British hillforts for the Telegraph. As a freelance journalist Watson has worked for the Telegraph, the Times and the Financial Times, writing features which included looking for Bigfoot in the USA (Telegraph), swimming with sea lions off the Galapagos Islands (Times) and diving on the scuppered German World War One fleet at Scapa Flow (FT).[5]

The book was widely reviewed by the genre press and book bloggers.
