Hello again, all! I
just looked at the date of my last post, and it’s been three years.
I may have been absent from the world of blogging, but I haven’t
been idle. I’m currently putting the finishing touches to my latest
novel, Galactic Alliance: Betrayal. It’s five years since An
Accident of Birth was published, and in that time I’ve written a
science fiction space opera story that I hope you will enjoy.
What’s it about? I
hear you ask. Here’s the blurb from the back cover:
The Galactic Alliance has brought advanced
technology and trade to Earth. The governments of Earth see them as a
friend – why invest in global defences when we have the Galactic
Alliance as an ally?
Daniel thinks they're wrong. Nobody, not even
Ruth, believes him when he stumbles upon a Galactic Alliance plot to
take over Earth and subject humanity to brutal, dehumanising slavery.
Separated from Ruth by Vorth astro-pirates, Daniel
is torn between trying to warn sceptical Earth governments and
finding Ruth. The astro-pirates, meanwhile, discover that Ruth is not
the pushover they expect her to be.
Pursued across the galaxy by hostile aliens,
Daniel confronts the Galactic Alliance, plunging himself and Ruth
into the heart of the biggest conflict in Earth’s history.
I hope that whets your appetite. If you like the
sound of it, just wait ’till you see the cover. I’m planning to
do a cover reveal very soon, and publication will follow shortly
after that.
So, here I am, back from my blogging hiatus, and
raring to go. Watch this space for a peek at the cover.
