Book excerpt: 'Tinker Tales Untold' is a collection of previously unpublished stories celebrating magic and motorcycles. Tinker is the son of an absentee Irish gypsy dad and a Scottish mum, raised poor and hitting the streets after her death in his early teens. Becoming a trader in old iron ponies, he falls in with Magic John and survives a sorcerer's apprenticeship to that gutter mage (as described in the previous collection, 'Tinker Tales'). Now he frequents a pub in Faerhame, tangles with ghosts, demi-gods, and demons... life isn't easy for a biker dabbling in magic.
