James Richardson works at Great Britain’s ‘Museum of the Year 2012’ Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter, Devon. There, he is subjected to numerous ancient artefacts which constantly trigger his overactive imagination, though much of his inspiration is drawn from a wealth of experiences from his world wide travels.


From megalithic temples in Malta to trekking through the steamy jungles of the Amazon; from swimming with sharks in the Pacific, exploring the ruins of South East Asia and travelling across the plains of Africa; to slogging through deserts, dancing the haka with Maori and hiking across glaciers, he’s been pretty much wherever Raine and King go (though with fewer explosions, chases, booby-traps and villains!) 
Be sure to check out his blog to read exclusive ‘behind-the-scenes’ insights on Moon Mask, where he will reveal his inspiration for aspects of the characters and story as well as separate the truth from the fiction- Who are the real Bouda? What really was the Philadelphia Experiment? And much more. . .
