I've been writing for most of my adult life, both for children and adults, and have been lucky enough to make a living doing so. In the course of my career I've been involved in three classics, including two iconic TV animation series: THUNDERCATS, for which I was one of the original writing team, and BOB THE BUILDER, which I co-developed and for which I wrote a number of episodes. Many other animation shows which I have written, script edited and/or developed continue to be broadcast around the world, the latest being TURBOZAURS, tales of dinosaurs that transform into mighty machines and vice-versa. The third classic is a book, FULL MOON, widely regarded as the best bio of rock legend Keith Moon. Written with long-time co-writer Peter Lawrence in collaboration with Moon aide Peter ‘Dougal’ Butler, it was originally published by W H Allen in 1981, republished by Faber & Faber in 2012 and is still in print.
I have written a trilogy of novels for young adults, comprising CLAWS OF FURY (originally published by Bloomsbury) CLAWS OF THUNDER and CLAWS OF VENGEANCE. All are available on Amazon. Peter Lawrence and I have co-written a number of novels for adults, including IT'S YOUR MONEY IN MY POCKET, DEAR, NOT MINE IN YOURS and ENGULFED IN A TIDE OF FILTH. Both originally published by Quartet Books, they are now available on Amazon, along with a sequel, THE MAO TSE TUNG WORKERS REVOLUTIONARY STRIPTEASE EMPORIUM. Our dystopian steampunk trilogy FRANKENSTEIN VIGILANTE comprises three novels: THE INCORRUPTIBLES; THE FEAR; and THE RECKONING. We have also published three horror novellas: BLOOD RANCH; LOOM: ISLAND OF TERROR; and NIGHT OF THE DOGS, available in one volume entitled BLOOD, FANGS AND CLAWS. Our most recent novel is a sixties-set dark comedy, FLASH CHORD.
Praise for Chris Trengove's books: CLAWS OF FURY. “… written in a very imaginative and rich way… I can recommend it for all ages…” “A fun, clever and highly entertaining futuristic read for both kids and adults.” (Amazon UK) CLAWS OF THUNDER: “… the author has created a world so strange but believable that it stands up with the very best of science fantasy novels.” (Amazon UK)
Praise for Chris Trengove and Peter Lawrence’s books: IT'S YOUR MONEY IN MY POCKET, DEAR, NOT MINE IN YOURS. "... well-observed... unmistakably the start of an irresistible composite talent." (The Times) "... a very funny novel... though not one for puritan readers." (Manchester Evening News) ENGULFED IN A TIDE OF FILTH: "... wickedly honest... full of finger-lickin' good digs at distasteful modern horrors..." (Men Only) FULL MOON: "... incredible verve, panache and fun..." (Girl About Town) "... a welcome change from the usual bland rock book reportage (New Musical Express) FRANKENSTEIN VIGILANTE: THE INCORRUPTIBLES: "Hissing with cinematic steam fuelled action plus an occasional smoky backfire of female dominated sex." (Amazon UK) "Aficionados of steampunk fiction will find themselves... in the hands of two exceptional wordsmiths and storytellers. (Amazon UK) "A rollicking ride through sci-fi, fantasy... adult porn, gang warfare, and a dozen or so other genres..." (Amazon US) FRANKENSTEIN VIGILANTE: THE FEAR "A thoroughly enjoyable continuation of the first book." (Amazon US.)
