THE REAL WAR IS JUST BEGINNING . . . AND WE MAY ALREADY HAVE LOST
Kate Morgan has had her memory wiped and has no idea of her true identity, her encounter with the monstrous Vu-Hak, or her relationship with humanity's presumed savior, Adam Benedict. But despite his apparent sacrifice, the portal has opened and the Vu-Hak are here on Earth in huge numbers. Invisible, wraith-like. And searching for Kate.
Kate needs to rediscover the truth and recapture the threads of her life, and what is at stake. She takes charge of an around-the-world hunt for the one person who may be able to help stop the invasion; but no-one wants to believe her.
I’m a full-time cancer physician (Medical Oncologist). I was born in Newcastle, UK and moved to Brisbane, Australia in 2004. My professional writing credits include over 200 publications including peer-reviewed research papers, journals, book chapters, conference contributions and electronic outputs in the field of Cancer Research.
I’ve always loved sci-fi and dreamed about being an author in this genre as long as I can remember. My reading faves include ‘old school’ legends such as Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, Dan Simmons and Frank Herbert, but I devour almost everything by Alastair Reynolds, Neal Stephenson and Kim Stanley Robinson. Recently I’ve gotten into Richard Morgan and Ann Leckie, and try really, really hard to like Peter F. Hamilton. Also, every time Lee Child brings out a new Reacher I set aside a weekend to just immerse myself in that fabulous character’s mind and world.
It may be a cliché, but yes, I am a Star Wars, Marvel and Tolkien tragic, so if not working or reading or writing, you’ll find me rewatching these movies… and trying to out-quote my two daughters (I usually don’t win).
Finally, I keep fit by cycling as much as I can, and I meditate to stay sane and keep everything in perspective and balanced. My wife, Andrea, can tell you how successful I am at the latter…
