In 1947 a UFO crash landed in Roswell, USA. There were no known alien survivors.
Over sixty years later two unique children from very different backgrounds discover they have abilities far beyond the ordinary. Only a secret US agency knows why.
The children, Eric and Ursula, embark on an exciting journey to find the answers. Answers that lie in old space debris scattered across Europe.
Their every move is monitored and a deadly game of cat and mouse begins. Will they find the secrets to their shared past? Or will the agency find them first?
I’m the author of the ‘Adventures of Eric and Ursula’. Over the last eighteen years, I have lived near Dracula's castle in Transylvania, war-torn Sri Lanka and above the Hadron Collider in Geneva. Currently, I live in Prague, not far from a space rocket covered in giant babies.
The idea for ‘The Adventures of Eric and Ursula’ came to me while hiking in the Tatra Mountains in Slovakia and is my first series of novels.
For an older audience, I wrote the films ‘Seagulls’ which was shown at the Brighton Film Festival and ‘your baby disappeared’ which premiered in Prague in 2011. When I am not writing I enjoy spending time with my family, cycling, watching movies, listening to comedy and being creative.
'An Extra-Ordinary Beginning' starts slowly. I, therefore, felt that it was important to make sure there was a hook to draw the reader in. This is an important part of the novel but I moved it to the first chapter in order to 'grab' the reader so they want to read more.
Book Excerpt
An Extra-Ordinary Beginning
The
explosion ripped through the European Space Station with the speed
of a bullet. Over one hundred metres of metal, plastic, complicated
circuitry and solar panels were silently reduced to a billion new
satellites orbiting the earth. Hidden amongst the debris were two
platinum pods. They had been shot away from the space station just
before the explosion; into the Earth’s atmosphere and onto their
programmed locations.
