About the Author

Bohemian womaniser and revolutionary spirit, Keith Topping is a journalist and author of over 20 books including two editions of The Guinness Book of Classic British TV, numerous guides to TV series as diverse as The X-Files, Star Trek, The Avengers and Roswell for Virgin Books, four BBC Doctor Who novels (including the award-winning The Hollow Men) and the best-selling Slayer: An Unofficial and Unauthorised Guide to Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

He has written for many TV and genre magazines including Starburst and Shivers and is a former Contributing Editor of DreamWatch, specialising in coverage of US series such as Buffy, Angel, Stargate SG-1 and The West Wing.

Keith was born on sunny Tyneside on the same day in 1963 that his beloved Newcastle United lost 3-2 at home to Northampton Town. Things have improved a bit since then.

He began his journalistic career whilst he was still working for the civil service (he has since escaped), writing for music, TV and football fanzines. He regularly appears on local radio and also contributed to the BBC television series I Love the 70s.

He is currently co-scripting, with Martin Day, a proposed TV series for an independent production company. His hobbies include socialising with friends, foreign travel, very loud pop music, trashy British horror movies, current affairs and military history.

His autobiography, I've Had Her, will be published posthumously.

What they've said about Keith's books:

Doctor Who Novels:

The Hollow Men:

"An attention-grabber." - TV Zone

"The characterisation is good and the prose is smooth, evocative and easy to read." - SFX

"Past Doctor Adventure of the Year." - Doctor Who Monthly

The King of Terror:

"Hugely enjoyable." - Doctor Who Monthly

Byzantium:

"Topping's historical is a richly-described, bloodthirsty thing." - Doctor Who Monthly

"The First Doctor and his crew know the score and so, too, does Keith Topping." - Starburst

Doctor Who Factual:

Doctor Who The Discontinuity Guide:

"Well worth a look." - Dreamwatch

Cult and Classic TV:

Slayer:

"Topping's terrific tome adopts the perfect attitude to this fizzing phenomenon... He rattles through each episode with focus on teen-angst metaphors, the brilliant feminist subtexts, and the dazzling use of "valley speak"... Colour me stunned." - Uncut

"Slayer will keep you enlightened and amazed for weeks." - Dreamwatch

"Cool!" - Shout Magazine

Hollywood Vampire:

"A mighty reference work." - Dreamwatch

High Times:

"This could be just the book for you." - TV Zone

Shut It!:

"Book of the month... The prefect armchair guide." - Loaded

"Searing!" - Bizarre

Classic British TV:

"Faultlessly-researched... never less than wholly entertaining." - Film Review
