After earning a PhD in mathematics at Imperial College London, he went back to the US to work on a variety of research projects, including the \"Star Wars\" missile-defense program. Since returning to the UK, he has worked mainly on image processing and decision\/reasoning theory. He never had any ambition to be a writer, so he was very surprised when a half-hearted attempt to find an agent turned into a global publishing deal overnight. His first trilogy, The Broken Empire, has been universally acclaimed as a groundbreaking work of fantasy, and both \u003ci\u003eEmperor of Thorns\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Liar's Key\u003c\/i\u003e have won the David Gemmell Legend Award for best fantasy novel. Mark is married, with four children, and lives in Bristol.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ace Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44707309420781,"sku":"9780593437926","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/files\/img_ee6f9890-4fc2-4b12-bcfd-f4eee68ff049.jpg?v=1747514673","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-book-that-wouldnt-burn-9780593437926","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
