STUART GEBBIE PRESENTS

THE BLADE OF VENGEANCE

AUTHOR STATEMENT & OPERATIONAL PREMISE

“In my works of fiction I aim to explore the darker side of warfare with a focus on as much authenticity as I am able to achieve without first hand experiences to draw upon while also delving into the morally grey exploring whether doing the wrong thing for the right reasons is justifiable in the world we live in today.”

OPERATIONAL ETHOS • MILITARY THRILLER CORE

THE MORALLY GREY REALITY OF WAR

AUTHENTIC SPECIAL OPERATIONS

Inspired by a strong connection to the military and an interest in military history, military thriller novels, and special operations.

THE MORALLY GREY DIMENSION

Examining whether doing the wrong thing for the right reasons can ever be justifiable in the modern world.

LIVING HISTORICAL LEGACY

​

Visits to historic battlefields in Normandy, the Somme, Arras, Dunkirk, and Culloden are part of Stuart's stated interests.

IN THE AUTHOR'S OWN WORDS

"I have always had a strong connection to the military with family members and family friends who have been involved in WW2, The Troubles and the First Gulf War. This exposure from a young age inspired my interest in military history and military thriller novels. Being an avid reader I devoured as much as I could with my main interest being in the world of special operations. In my works of fiction I aim to explore the darker side of warfare with a focus on as much authenticity as I am able to achieve without first hand experiences to draw upon while also delving into the morally grey exploring whether doing the wrong thing for the right reasons is justifiable in the world we live in today."

IMPACT OF J.R.R. TOLKIEN
