Introduction - Jonnathan Strawthorne
My name is Jonnathan Kenneth Strawthorne. I live in the Republic of Panama with my wife. We have three sons and one granddaughter whom I love telling stories to. I am an author in the following genre: science fiction, historical fiction, alternate historical fiction, alternate historical science fiction, and apocalyptic science fiction.
My first book, The Causality of Time, is published and available through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Trafford, Chapters and Indigo. It is the first book in a six book series. I am currently on page 194 of the second book in the series called, The Causality of Time - Conception. Hopefully, the transcript for book 2 will be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2017.
I am also currently writing book 1, in the transcript phase, of a second series of novels called, The New World Order; an apocalyptic setting in the not too distant future. It incorporates the recently discovered "God" particle or "Higgs Boson" into the base of the plot with various competing global powers vying for the tremendous opportunity and power of this new development. The competing global powers are; 1.) the Anglo-American hegemony, 2.) the Pan-Asian Alliance, 3.) Catholicism, 4.) Islam, and 5.) the Sovereigntist nations.
The third book I am writing, in the transcript phase, is called, Red White and Grey; it follows a young man starting in the year 1917. The main character's father is from Germany, his mother is from Russia and he was born on a ranch outside of Austin, Texas, USA. The story follows this young man as he is conscripted into the war effort for World War 1 and subsequently sent to Russia to assist in the transfer of lend lease trucks, fuel, oil, food, weapons and ammunition for the civil war being fought between the Red Communist Russians and White Tzarist Russians. The story encompasses forty years of his adventures, trials, love and agony as he witnesses the titanic struggle of nations of that generation's time period.
My fourth book, in the transcript phase, is called Allure; it is a story surrounding the gold mining in West Africa and the smuggling and international criminal embezzlement of tens of millions of dollars from unsuspecting foreign businessmen trying to purchase gold dore for resale to well known smelters located in Africa, Europe and America. The story starts in Sierra Leone and moves on to Ghana when two businessmen from America embark on a journey to the Gold Coast. From there it quickly devolves into the world of international crime syndicates and local players trying to defraud the naive American buyers. The ultimate show down of two competing criminal factions, the final conclusion for the hapless businessmen and the involvement of INTERPOL, the FBI and the CIA strikes a poignant ending.
I have a very active imagination and rapacious curiosity of history, science fiction and technology. My inspiration comes from the masters of story telling: Tolstoi, Pushkin, Assimov, MacLean, Clarke, Cussler, Smith, Kootnz, Poe, Tolkien, Michener, Hawking, Robinson, Heinlein and King. These masters of writing molded my imagination into the creative realm of fiction that I love doing. Their stories spurred me on to expand the envelope of the what if and I hope to be telling and writing stories that will haunt, taunt and tease the reader for many years to come.
