Rehan Khan was born in London. His parents’ home was close to the famous All England Lawn Tennis Club and a bike ride away from Wimbledon Common. As a child he loved reading swashbuckling tales of heroism and valour, as well as dabbling in science fiction. When not writing, Rehan works in the telecoms sector and is also a visiting professor at an international business school. He lives in Dubai with his family.

`Three huzzahs for this scintillating new take on the late Tudor period: a rip-roaring, erudite, cosmopolitan pageturner peppered with the wisdom of ages and glowing with the ruby light of a compassionate heart - a jewel no snaggle-toothed Queen or vainglorious Sultan can buy' Naomi Foyle, author, The Gaia Chronicles; `A girl-warrior of Songhai nobility captured in Africa ... an English boy enslaved from the age of five ... a stolen religious relic that leads to an international chase.... In A Tudor Turk, Rehan Khan pulls off a rare literary coup. It's a masterly meld of riveting historical background, characters whose emotions blaze from the pages, a balance between an unlikely (but likeable) male and female duo, and settings so vivid you will think you're hearing and smelling the scenes. This is confident, perfectly paced storytelling, a rip-roaring adventure full of narrative surprises. The pace does not let up from page one, and by the conclusion readers young and old will be eager for more from Will and Awa!' Peter Lerangis, author, Seven Wonders and Max Tilt series; `In these uncertain Brexit days, A Tudor Turk's portrayals of sixteenth-century prejudice against Ottoman Turks, an ageing queen named Elizabeth, and England as an isolated and despised European outpost cannot but find resonance. To borrow Jo Cox's words, the novel shows that different cultures share “more in common than that which divides us”’. Claire Chambers, York University.
