  • His works, which are known for high levels of camp and trippy imagery, include: * The Scarlet Empress * The Blue Angel * Mad Dogs and Englishmen (the cover of which has been known to cause epilepsy in rare cases) * Verdigris * Sick Building (Originally called "Wicked Bungalow", until they made him change the title on the grounds it was too weird) * Various Big Finish audios * The Nest Cottage series * Iris Wildthyme * Vince Cosmos, Glam Rock Detective Apparently he was RTD's favorite EU writer, which explains a lot.

His style can best be summed up as "No, honestly, this isn't as stupid as it sounds..." Apparently he was RTD's favorite EU writer, which explains a lot. He was also a member of Bernice's archaeology team in Love and War and discovered some sort of ruin. That's right, Paul Magrs is Canon.
