Originally hailing from the English city of Manchester, David began his career in 1995, writing for numerous classic British gaming magazines from a rusting, condemned, dry-docked bohemian German fishing trawler floating on the River Thames. Fleeing the United Kingdom, he joined the crew at the part-fraternity, partsanitarium known as GameFan magazine. David helped launch GameFan Books and form Gamers’ Republic, was partly responsible for the wildly unsuccessful incite Video Gaming and Gamers.com. He began authoring guides for Prima in 2000. He has written over 70 strategy guides, including The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Assassin’s Creed, Half-Life: Orange Box, Mario Kart Wii, and Halo 3: ODST. He lives in the Pacific Northwest with his wife Melanie and an eight-foot statue of Great Cthulhu.
