About the Book

JOIN THE TEAM. SAVE THE WORLD. Twin geniuses Jacob and Kira are recruited to take part in a high-tech mission to protect the planet ... but will their dreams of adventure come true, or is the threat too great to handle?

'A fun, action-packed thriller with a brother-sister duo that I really loved.' - David Owen, author of the Alex Neptune series

Twin geniuses, Jacob and Kira, have their lives in Uganda turned upside down when they discover someone has been watching their every move in the hopes to enlist them in a top-secret agency called Transcendent.

The twins are sent to London, and must take part in three trials, each more difficult than the last, to be accepted into Transcendent.

If they are successful, they will be launched into space to complete a high-stakes mission to fight the greatest threat the world has ever seen.

Only, the twins soon realise they have more to contend with than they bargained for ... is there a more sinister reason they have been chosen?

Two kids, one top-secret agency and an epic mission to save the world.

About the Author :
Patrick Gallagher is a primary school teacher from South London with roots in Goa in India and Donegal in Ireland. He studied English and American Literature with Creative Writing in both Kent and Maynooth and is a keen artist and violinist in his spare time.

Like lots of Goans of that generation, Patrick's mother was born and raised in Uganda and the time he himself has spent there inspired the spectacular backdrop to Transcendent.

Jacob and Kira's story has been years in the making. It draws not only on Patrick's experience of dual heritage but every science-fiction and adventure story he devoured as a child, every Doctor Who episode and Spider-Man cartoon, every comic or short story he scribbled on scrap paper, every daydream on long car journeys.

To Patrick's class and every other child reading Transcendent, he would like to say this: if you love writing stories, keep going.

You never know. You might just never stop.

Review :
A fun, action-packed thriller with a brother-sister duo that I really loved Fans of the Alex Rider series will love this adventure story High octane, high emotion, occasionally terrifying and utterly riveting...the plot of Transcendent is crammed with action and cool technological gadgets and, to pack it all in, the pace is fast' A cracking debut novel from Patrick Gallagher...the story races along at break-neck speed, diving through one plot twist after another. I turned the last page with a disappointed 'no!' as I longed for more and I'll be eagerly awaiting the sequel A fresh look at the concept of 'Otherness' from a sci-fi perspective. Amid the battle for minds that is central to the ever-twisting plot of Transcendent, the idea that rather than accepting responsibility we bury our heads in fantasy and blame our problems on unknown Others resonates loudest
