Press Release
London, 18 May 2025 – Acclaimed author David Gordon, celebrated for his unique blend of historical fiction, science fiction, and mystery, is featured in the latest issue of Reader’s House magazine. Known as London’s premier literary gateway, the magazine is renowned for profiling bestselling, award-winning, and exceptional authors across its platforms.
Gordon’s interview explores his journey as a writer, his passion for reimagining history, and the creative process behind his acclaimed novels, including the Jigsaw, Case File, and Moly series. Reader’s House has praised David Gordon and his titles, commending him for delivering thrilling and educational narratives that inspire readers to see history with fresh perspectives.
Discussing his work in the interview, Gordon shared, “For the reader, I have two goals when I’m writing: to entertain and to educate. I want my readers to learn about real historical events while enjoying dynamic, character-driven stories.” His nuanced storytelling is evident in titles like Jigsaw: History’s Forgotten, where his exploration of time-travel adventures highlights both the drama and fragility of historical events.
In addition to his historical fiction work, Gordon also talked about his expansion into noir mystery horror with The Mummy’s Vengeance. Inspired by 1920s-1930s aesthetics, Universal Horror classics, and writers like Dashiell Hammett, Gordon described the project as a creative breakthrough, completing the draft in a record six weeks.
Gordon’s background as an educator stands as a foundational influence to his writing, with his time as a social studies teacher and school administrator shaping his focus on history. “Without my experience as an educator, there is no Jigsaw universe,” he remarked. His ability to weave detailed historical research into engrossing narratives has won over both critics and readers alike.
For aspiring writers, Gordon offered inspiring advice: “Never give up! Perseverance is key. Research and outline your story before writing; fresh eyes—like those of a skilled editor—can transform your work in ways you never imagined.”
The Reader’s House magazine lauded both Gordon and his titles in their review, calling his work “masterfully imaginative and deeply insightful,” while praising his ability to turn historical facts into engrossing adventures. The feature is part of the magazine’s ongoing dedication to spotlighting the finest voices in literature across its print, online, electronic, and social media platforms.
