Conflux

by D.R. Hill

But before her ship can arrive, a cataclysmic event known as the Conflux brings human civilisation crashing down at the height of the golden age of space exploration.
Alien races that evolved on Earth in parallel universes are now brought together into one singular existence by the merging of the multiverse. Whilst some coexist peacefully, others wage war against the remnants of human civilisation.
Iris awakens from cryosleep thousands of years after she first set out, pulled from the wreckage of her ship by Arthur Asimov, a renegade ex-marine and starship engineer turned pirate. Confronted with an unrecognisable universe of faster-than-light travel, bizarre alien species, and strangest of all, black magic, Iris and Arthur become entangled in world-shaking events that once again threaten to unravel the fabric of reality.

About the author

D. R. Hill lives with his partner in the rural county of Devon, England. Graduating with a BSc in Biomedical Science from Queen Mary University of London in 2014, he left university without a plan, with an uncertain future, and a lengthy unfinished manuscript. After a short period of soul searching, D. R. Hill took a job at a local landscaping company and got to work writing. That manuscript quickly evolved and divided over the years that followed, finally becoming The Archmage Saga with the first entry, Rise Of The Apostate, making it to print in May 2018. Today, he continues to work for the same landscaping company whilst spending every minute he can writing, hoping one day to rival the likes of J. R. R. Tolkien or Arthur C. Clarke.
