edit data

Science fiction with edge-of-the-seat action, Machiavellian reversals of fortune, and unavoidable heartbreak and sacrifice. David Dire writes thought-provoking sci-fi with frequent elements of mystery in fiction that delve into the complex contradictions and motivations of us all.

He brings the lesser-represented views of the outsider closer to the fore with multi-layered fiction that envisages future worlds where technology and society may have gone desperately awry, or where we ourselves have taken a wrong turn.

The rebel in him has always sided with the underdog who goes against the grain of collective thought, and as such, many of his characters take on this mantle despite overpowering adversity.

Newlander Escape – The Final Part Five

I had no idea that writing the Newlander series would take me to where it did. I had an inkling, but I just didn't know how in-depth I'd be getting with some of the symbology and allegory. Frankly, it gained a momentum and life all of its own...
