“Someday, you make a game for me, Daddy?” That is what little Ryan McLaughlin asked her father, Mark, many years ago. He designed not one but two games for his daughter and then wrote a novel based on the latter of those: " Princess Ryan's Star Marines." (His son, Campbell, designed the cover, and the book is available on Amazon.) Mark is currently working on a series of historical fiction novels entitled: " Throne of Darius." Seven in this series about characters (real and imagined) who fought against Alexander the Great have already been published (along with a book of short stories). Mark is currently at work on a eighth book in the series - withone more planned after that.
A freelance journalist, Mark is also the author of two books on military history ("The Wild Geese" by Osprey Publishing and "Battles of the American Civil War" by Crown (both of which are also available on Amazon). In addition, Mark and is the designer of the computer game "Napoleon's Eagles" and has had 28 of his boardgame designed published (with four more in the works with publishers). The most recent of these games is "Ancient Civilizations of the Middle East" by GMT games.
Mark also writes for many clients and publications. Although his principal work as a journalist over the last 40 years has been in foreign affairs, he also writes on everything from travel and entertainment to serious position papers.
