About the Book

Xen is new to this; having lost his wife he thought his life was over. Discovering a new gift, however, gives him purpose. Suddenly he finds he can see beyond the physical, inside to what lies within. He soon discovers the dangers this strange gift brings, as he seeks to gain control over it before it destroys him. Quickly it becomes a race for his life as he flees through Italy, evading Interpol, obsessed followers and dangerous criminal enemies. Eventually, after many mistakes, he discovers his purpose. Just in time to save himself, and maybe the world too. This is a gentle psychological thriller, with a hint of the supernatural. Often funny, sometimes emotional, it is an enlightening read from an exciting new author with a great voice.

About the Author :
I am a 40 year old (ish) Cognitive Scientist and Software Engineer. I had to give up work due to being diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome so was at a bit of a loose end, having done all the housework I could find. During my recovery, which is still ongoing, I discovered that I could still write things without suffering too badly. So turning away from technical engineering documentation I tried to write a novel. Xen was the result. I enjoyed it a great deal and got a nice sense of satisfaction from the process. I totally plan to write more. I am writing Ego now, and have plans for one called Ink and one called Game. Taking time off work, my wife joined me in some travels abroad. This is evident in my work as they are often set in foreign places, pulling in my experiences and observations. My ideas predominantly come from the world of psychology, computers, and my weird outlook on life. I would say that the largest characteristic of my personality is that I am strange. I think anyone that knows me would agree. Also, unfortunately, I go on a bit too much about things. Enter my wife, Sarah. She keeps me in check when I am wittering on about something or another and has undertaken this role too, in my writings. Hopefully, therefore, my books are interesting, a little strange, sometimes funny, and edited to be more direct than this introduction.
