I write short science-fiction novels, usually with a post-apocalyptic flavor and a twist of fantasy. I’m lucky enough to have a day job working as a technical writer. In 2004 I won the Antipodean Sci-Fi award for a very short story called Skin Deep.

I live in Brisbane, Australia, with my wife and three rowdy kids who keep life interesting and me on my toes. My current obsessions are running, writing, and being a good dad.

A God-Blasted Land is the first story in The Bastard Cadre series and is available at Amazon.com.

Clockwork Samurai

Raised among dead cities and empty wasteland deserts, Avril Ethanson has never had cause to question his place in the world, but when an eccentric assassin crosses his path and relentlessly pursues him, Avril realizes there is more to life than subsisting as a technology salvager. Thrown into the path of dragons, immortals, Gods, and cadres of bondsmen Avril must defeat the assassin before he can claim his place in the world.

Blending science-fiction and fantasy, A God-Blasted Land is the first novella in The Bastard Cadre series.

A God-Blasted Land is available at Amazon.com.
