Hi Mick. I've noticed on the cover art of your books, that each of the shadowy figures on them wield the legendary Kukri daggers of the Nepalese Gurkhas. It's a particularly unique touch, and I was wondering what was the significance of featuring the knife, and how it came to be the running motif in the cover art of the Dan Roy series. ?

Mick Bose Hi Samuel well noticed! Dan Roy grew up in a Gurkha village as his American parents worked for the UN and were stationed there. This is part of the reason why Dan has legendary strengths- he used to run and down the Himalayan mountainside with the Gurkha kids. They also trained him how to use a Kukri knife and it became his weapon of choice! In the opening book Hidden Agenda this is all explained.
