• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The world is recovering from years of pandemics followed by a declining population. The tide of national power has swung back to the old world with France ascendant among the nations. The older world powers are not happy, particularly the USA which has become more authoritarian, and China. The French advantage is their high investment in new technologies. However, some of these are beginning to 'get away' from them. Numerous protest groups have formed, some of them violent. Even with this background of violence the French continue to make astounding progress in nanotechnology particular in medical and military augmentation applications. The progress blends in with other activity involving biologically grown artificial intelligence. The two come together to herald in The Chaos times.

Autorenporträt

As an undergraduate in the 1970s I was a member of the Melbourne University Science Fiction Club, contributing to and editing the magazine, Yggdrasil, which was largely devoted to fiction. We also held writers workshops and since then I have continued to 'scribble away' at various things with the seed of the 'Anita' novels sprouting in the late 80s.
Personally, I found it impossible to write seriously while working full-time. (I have a Ph D in Physics and worked in research and have published numerous scientific articles). Always wanting to be a novelist, I took time off a few years ago to see if I had it in me to produce a novel. It worked for me and I retired properly and have dedicated myself to writing ever since.
Writing is great fun, I love it. Whenever asked I say it is 'better than reading' because I am continually surprised as the plot develops. I am definitely not an author who has a novel plotted out from start to finish. As Ray Bradbury said, 'It would be boring if you knew where it was going'. Indeed, the main protagonist in 'Anita' suddenly appeared a third of the way into the novel.
There are 4 more books on the way in the Anita Histories and I am also dabbling in some contemporary novels too. Keep tuned, because the next 3 Anita novels may come out quite quickly.
