The Author
About Gary Roddy
Gary Roddy is a writer whose work explores the spaces between lives — the decisions that reshape us, the places that hold us, and the quiet moments in which we become someone new.
Born and raised in London, Gary spent years navigating the energy and contradictions of city life before a series of journeys through rural France began to pull his imagination southward. The contrast between Camden's restless streets and the unhurried rhythms of the Dordogne became the seed of his debut novel.
From Camden to Castillonnes is his first novel, and the opening book of a series. It draws on years of travel, observation, and a deep fascination with what it means to leave one life behind and step, uncertainly, into another.
He is currently working on Books 2 and 3 in the series, both of which are expected within the next six months.
“I wanted to write about the courage it takes to begin again — and the strange grace that sometimes follows.”
