About the Author
About the Author
Gordon Carroll was raised in the shadows of the great Rocky Mountains in Colorado. He joined the United States Marine Corps at eighteen and served for seven years achieving the rank of sergeant (selected for staff sergeant). After that he became a police officer in a small (wild) city nestled snugly in the middle of Denver Colorado before moving on to become a sheriff’s deputy. Because of his love for dogs he became a K9 handler, trainer, and instructor, training and working four separate dogs over three decades (a hundred and twenty pound German Shepherd named JR, a ninety pound Belgian Malinois named Max, a fifty-six pound Belgian Malinois named Thor and a sixty pound fur missile named Arrow.
Over the years Gordon and his K9 companions have assisted the DEA, FBI and numerous other local, state and federal law enforcement agencies in the detection and apprehension of criminals and narcotics. Together, Gordon and his K9 partners have been responsible for over a million dollars in narcotics seizures, a thousand felony apprehensions and were first responders to both the 2012 Aurora Mall shooting and the 2013 Arapahoe High School shooting.
He has been married to the same wonderful woman (his high school sweetheart, Becky) for over thirty years and they have four adult children and a whole pack of grandchildren.
Gordon started his love with books when he was in sixth grade after being captivated by Jack London’s White Fang and Call of the Wild. From there he branched out gobbling up everything from Robert E. Howard to Steinbeck to Brand, King, Wambaugh, Irving, Craise, Hunter, Rothfuss, Lowry, Card, Emmerich and on and on.
After years of telling stories to his children and friends, his wife insisted he start writing some of them down. After that he was bitten by the dreaded writing bug and started sending stories to different publications. He was quickly published in several magazines in genres ranging from Si-Fi to horror to mainstream and Christian before writing GUNWOOD USA, a fictionalized compilation of real life scenarios that he has seen, heard of or been involved with over his years in law enforcement and military service.
Gordon is a member of Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers (RMFW) and served on speaking panels for three years as well as performing K9 demos at the annual conferences.
Gordon is currently working on his fourth novel in the Gil Mason series.
