Nick Harkaway's photostream

Many years ago, while travelling in the land of Yopp, Nick Harkaway learned a forbidden secret which gives him powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men! Now, returned to civilisation, he uses his abilities in the service of all mankind...

Wait, no, that's not right...

Born of an ancient line of kings, Nick Harkaway toiled for many years in the underground drains of London, unaware that his touch could waken sleeping demons and quell the savage beast...

No. No, still wrong.

In 1999, Nick Harkaway was seriously injured in a spaghetti accident. Using modern technology (with lots of LEDs) the British Academy of Science was able to rebuild him.... at a cost of millions of pounds!

That's way beyond wrong.

Well. Nick Harkaway is the author of The Gone-Away World, a failed martial artist and an internet communications junkie. He speaks a variety of languages with enough precision to be mistaken for an idiot in all of them, and tries very hard to forget that there was a time when he had hair all the way to his shoulders.
