Ben lives in Melbourne, Australia, with his wife and two children. He currently works at the Melbourne School of Theology as their eLearning Coordinator. He enjoys reading, writing, music and playing computer games in equal measures. He has an interest in the intersection between theology and the arts, and to that end has written a play based on the life of Saul, a musical based on the Biblical book of Esther, and a novel that is actually a thinly-disguised commentary on the book of Revelation (as he says, "If others can do it, so can I!") For those who might be interested, he lists C. S. Lewis, Peter Shaffer and Neal Stephenson as his literary inspirations. ...more

Anyone for a hard-copy?

Ben Chenoweth Ben Chenoweth said: " This is turning out to be quite an interesting series! This book continues on well from the previous one, adding a new layer of complexity. I sort of felt the baddy wasn't as developed as the one in the first book, but then (spoiler alert) it turns o ...more "

2026: I am re-reading this series in preparation for when the 8th and final book comes out later this year. I really enjoyed reading this one again, though, especially since in the intervening time I read "Jane Eyre". There is quite a lot going on in ...more

Reader, I made it! I got through what is, for many, the best English novel ever written. Now, that may be going a bit far (because the best novel in English is Cryptonomicon, obviously!) But this mammoth tome had its moments. Once you adjust to the f ...more

Another rollicking plot with a cast of flawed characters, not least the central character of Jackson Lamb. Having seen the TV series, I basically knew what would happen; but the writing style, with a number of laugh-out-loud moments, made this a very ...more

This is a short sci-fi novel that is essentially a philosophical discussion on art (specifically, how original pieces of art are so much more than even perfect replicas) wrapped in an interplanetary heist/war plot.
