My new novel:

The Fence Aberdeen Zombie post apocalyptic military survival Novel Book

The Aberdeen skies are under attack from an enemy jet. It is spilling a strange yellow smoke. Minutes later, people start killing each other.
Former Royal Air Force Regiment Gunner Jason Harper witnesses this and then his wife, Pippa, telephones him, shouting that she needs him. They then get cut off. He sets straight out, unprepared for the nightmare that unfolds during his journey. Everyone seems to want to kill him.
Along the way, he pairs up with fellow survivor Imogen. But she enjoys killing the living dead far too much. Will she kill Jason in her blood thirst? Or will she hinder his journey through this zombie filled dystopian landscape to find his pregnant wife?
The Fence is the first in this series of post-apocalyptic military survival thrillers from the torturous mind of local horror and science fiction novel writer C.G. Buswell.

Scottish Whisky Trail


Scottish Whisky TrailScottish Whisky Trail and whisky distilleries Scotland tours begins in Aberdeen and the North East of Scotland where there is a long tradition of whisky making. Many whisky distilleries in Grampian have organised tours and whisky tasting and produce some of the finest malts and blended whiskeys in Scotland. Some of the distilleries Scotland tours are free and others, like Aberlour whisky distillery Scotland, have a small admission charge, though after each of these whisky distilleries Scotland tours you usually get a taste of Scottish hospitality by drinking a wee dram to your good health. In the case of Aberlour Distillery Scotland you get to try over 5 different malts and blends and the opportunity to bottle your own malt whisky with a personalised label during their Scottish whisky trail.





Aberdeen Lynne Golden Retriever

Have you seen my beautiful golden retriever Lynne out and about in Aberdeen? Ask her for a high-five! She's a Bravehound PTSD assistance dog, so we'll often be in shops, restaurants, and the cinema together.

We've written a book where I talk about growing up in Aberdeen and then joining the army to be a medic and nurse, and developing military Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

I also talk about losing my son to suicide and the therapy I have had at Royal Cornhill Hospital and grief support groups in Aberdeen.

The author, Damien Lewis, said of Lynne:

"A powerful account of what one dog means to one man on his road to recovery. Both heart-warming and life-affirming. Bravo Chris and Lynne. Bravo Bravehound."
