Planning during lockdown


With the world in lockdown I've made a start planning books 2 & 3 of the Fixpoint Series: Chimera.

Chimera is the 2nd act in the Fixpoint trilogy, and as such will by definition leave a lot more questions unresolved than Overstrike.

Book 1: Overstrike, is an exploration of morals, society and free will.

Books 2 & 3: Chimera & Origins, continue where the earlier book leaves off but explores themes of gender, identity and self but also tackle spirituality, magic, self-actualization & transcendence.

Chimera : Fixpoint trilogy Vol II: First teaser

Since a good 50% of the feedback and reviews for Overstrike ended with "When's book 2 out?" here's a  teaser trailer for Chimera: Volume II of the Fixpoint trilogy which I hope to get out next year.. Where Volume I: Overstrike explored  morals, society and free will,  Chimera explores themes of gender, identity & ethics.

Overstrike now out


I’m excited to let you know that my debut novel: Overstrike is finally now out on Amazon. Please check it out and tell your friends. As you know this has taken the best part of 5-years to write and initial feedback I’ve had on this is very promising.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this and it. And if you enjoy it would be awesome if you could spread the word or drop a review on Amazon and Goodreads.

About the book

When Matt Howard’s grandfather told him he must alter history to protect his newborn son, Matt thought the old man was crazy…
…Then he realised it was true.

Overstrike spans 4 generations of a family haunted by the prospect of an approaching alternate reality where their child has been erased from history. Touching on themes of retro-causality, ethics and free will, and exploring ideas of cause, effect and retribution, it follows the path of Matt Howard, whose child, Ethan, is at risk, as he, his father and grandfather attempt to use their own abilities to manipulate reality in order to discover and prevent whoever is threatening Ethan.

This is volume I of Fixpoint, a trilogy about a family who discover their inherited ability to manipulate reality. It enables them to effect changes in order to safeguard themselves and all that they hold dear. But even seemingly small changes in a timeline can have unforeseen and far-reaching consequences. Follow the stories of the Howards, on a journey exploring reality, time and our own sense of self.
