ⓘ About Andy McNab
It is sad when young mothers abandon their newborns, but amazing what great people they can become. Andy McNab, born December 28, 1959, was left on steps of a hospital in Southwark, London, cradled in a shopping bag from Harrods. This beginning seemed to have a very negative impact on his life. McNab became a high school drop-out, never having performed particularly well in school. He worked odd jobs, usually for people he knew, switching occupations often. Soon, McNab turned to a life of petty crime, performing several burglaries, and was finally arrested for one of his crimes in 1976. Being arrested must have given McNab time to reflect over his life, because it was after that time that he decided to start a military career. This too did not come easy to him. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of Nick Stone Books series, Andy McNab has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
