ⓘ About John Stack

The characters he creates are also extremely well done as, whilst the books are from a completely different period, they still resonate with readers today. This can be seen reflected in his huge sales, which have reached increasingly high numbers, attracting readers from all across the world. Leaving an impact on readers too, many of his series has people continually coming back for more, largely due to their addictive nature. It’s clearly a testament to his writing, as they really set the standard for the genre, as many of his peers and contemporaries aspire to his level. His language is clear and accessible as well, with a no nonsense manner that is at once both evocative, whilst also being straight to the point.
