I was born in the summer of 1949, brought up in Surrey with its green fields and trees. It was a wonderful free playground for a child like me who loved nature.

The rich optimism of the sixties then fostered my love of Rock Music and Sci-fi.

I read avidly and devoured the works of Isaac Asimov, Clifford Simak, Robert Sheckley, Philip K Dick, Robert Heinlein, James White, Kurt Vonnegut Jnr, John Wyndham, George Orwell, Aldous Huxley and later Iain M Banks and Douglas Adams. I started writing and never looked back.

I brought up my children in Yorkshire and enjoyed a career in education.

Nowadays I spend my time writing, reading, travelling the world, enjoying my family and attending concerts. It’s a hard life!

4.0 out of 5 stars Green but wise
Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2016
Verified Purchase
Harrowing, timely and thrilling. An astute observation, written as fiction, into the potentially disastrous environmental impact of our present way of treating the planet. Set in the future, abounding in wonderful gizmos, women presidents, and disaffected terrorists, it is part philosophical text, part detective novel and all rip-roaring action adventure.

Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Cracker of a Read: Rip Roaring, Intelligent (Sci Fi) with un-preachy Social Commentary. Elspin emerges.
Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2016
Wow! This is an intelligent, absorbing, easily read, riproaring, sexy adventure set mostly on a rapidly disintegrating dystopian ( only slightly) future Earth. We experience events through the eyes and emotions of global government leaders, quarreling moderate and extreme eco resistance and eco warrior groups, police investigators, ruthless heads of industrial megalopoli ... and as a parallel story; the distressed lives of two loving parents of a deaf, blind, mute, 'locked in' immobile baby: Elspin. Weaving in and out of the story's periphery is a quiet obstetrician neurologist who discovers Elspin's disconnected brain is a unique, hugely complex, universe within itself where Elspin has created herself as green amorphous light-being capable of communicating with the outside world. Have I given too much away? I think not. OK - besides being a planet on the verge of eating and s***ting itself into oblivion - the world is a multiracial melting pot where race, age and gender have ceased being issues that matter. There are much bigger issues at stake. How will the emerging supermind of Elspin and the creaking old World intersect? Dammit - this book stops too soon. Or is this Part 1? This book would appeal to any reader, but sci fi readers would revel in it - Sagan's 'Contact' is just one that springs to mind.
