"Amir Behzadi is an imaginative and thought provoking writer, I found Thyroid The Cockroach King both entertaining and heartfelt at the same time. I highly recommend his work to anyone who wishes to delve into mythology and fantasy."

"BRILLIANT MASTERPIECE
I’m just sad I finished the book, I seriously wanted to read it all over again. I’m sure I will do at some point. Fabulous book! A home-run. You never want to put it down. The characters are amazing, likable and so well fleshed out. In short, for those who want to embark on a great memorable adventure, look no further. This is the first time that I’ve come across this author and it will definitely not be the last time, I cannot wait to see what other books the author has in store for us."

"Thyroid and Quasi, an unlikely but indestructible union, to take on all that is bad in their world. A no holds barred rollercoaster ride, strictly for grown-ups!"

Tahmores Tehrani

Born to Persian parents in London, I started my professional life as an English teacher. I taught abroad for a while and eventually came back.

Now I teach history and because of my experiences domestic and abroad I feel this has given me certain life experiences that add a bit of realism to my writing.

Music and imagery play a big part of how I develop my characters and the environment they are set in. I try to write an eclectic array of stories from mythological Horror, Fantasy, Spiritual, Science Fiction to historical events that have passed.

I write with a certain empathy towards the underdog. In most cases they are not always the winners but their voices are just as important as those that use and abuse them.
