About the author

Geoff was born in beautiful British Columbia and moved with his parents, three sisters, and two brothers to rural Manitoba before his first birthday. Since then, he has endured the extreme seasons in a way that only centrally located Canadians can appreciate.

I grew up on comic books and bad television from the seventies. It helped to develop an already over-active imagination to the point where I created my own series of comics featuring dozens of wacky heroes and ridiculous villains. I've also dabbled in cartoon strips and have been a regular contributor of political cartoons to a number of local newspapers. Throughout the years I realized my passion lay more in writing than in illustrating, so the 21st century has seen me make the transition from drawing funny pictures to writing full-time.

Great post apocalyptic tale set after the nukes fall... with a very nasty biohazard in the mix. No spoilers here... Good action and nice character development.
