Simon Taylor is an Editorial Director at Transworld Publishers, part of the Random House Group. Like so many others of his generation, his life-long passion for historical fiction began with the likes of Rosemary Sutcliff, Henry Treece and Geoffrey Trease, and he knows he is exceedingly lucky to be able to publish the sort of fiction he adores as a reader, namely novels by such fantastic storytellers as Giles Kristian, Steven Pressfield and James Wilde, to name but three. Not all his shirts are as garish as the one in this photograph.
