Hello all. Thanks for checking out the Lion, Eagle, Badger, Snake universe and delving into what is admittedly an unorthodox take on FanFiction and the fate of Slytherin House. Everything begins with the eponymous LEBS, in September 2005 (this is in fact around about the time I started writing it) in the foothills of Dartmoor as an unsuspecting 11-year-old finds himself thrust into the magical world. The story continues with the (as yet unfinished) Snakes and Ladders into the children's second year.

Snake Bites is my impression of the Albus/Rose first-year; it's been done 100 times before, but perhaps not all that often from the perspective of a new Head of Slytherin. It can be read alone, but it does contain some spoilers for LEBS. Finally, there's The Crossroads, a standalone one-shot set in September 2002, which fleshes out some of the supporting characters in LEBS.

In short, I'm a Briton, a teacher, a sportsman and a hillwalker. If you think you noticed an obscure passing reference to one of the above, then you probably did. I'd love to discuss any aspect of my writing, the stories, or anything even loosely related. Oh, and if you're wondering about the geographical and mythological references in the stories, everything is based on real places and genuine myths and legends.

I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I've enjoyed writing it.
