About Charles Palliser
Charles Palliser (born 1947) is an American-born, British-based novelist, elder brother of the late author and freelance journalist Marcus Palliser.

In the 1970s and 1980s, he lectured in modern literature and creative writing at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow and Rutgers University in New Jersey. During this time, he wrote two plays and, over a period of twelve years, his epic first novel The Quincunx.

Palliser has subsequently published three more novels.
 
Charles Palliser recommends
The Music of the Spheres
The Music of the Spheres (2001)
Elizabeth Redfern
"I found this novel unputdownable. The complex narrative is brilliantly handled to keep the reader guessing right to the end... fascinating..."
The Song of Achilles
The Song of Achilles (2011)
Madeline Miller
"Many thanks for sending me Madeline Miller's The Song of Achilles. I found it a real page-turner. It's a gripping narrative and vividly told. The fighting is very well described and that's hard to pull off. It's also an interesting take on Homer and the author obviously knows the poem and the period. I'm sure it will be a huge success."
