In 2052, extraterrestrial envoys Bjorn and Zorn from the technologically advanced Planet Aeon embark on a desperate quest to save Earth from annihilation brought on by relentless Religious Wars. Forming an unlikely alliance with courageous humans, they traverse timelines—from present day realities to the turmoil of mid-21st century Earth—while venturing across icy Enceladus, the vibrant cities of Caprice, their own luminous home world Aeon, as well as the bustling metropolises of New York and Paris, the rugged outback of Australia, and the volatile landscapes of the Middle East. Religion, deeply entwined in global society, fuels conflict as powerful leaders stubbornly resist transformation and peace. Amidst perilous encounters, sharp-witted banter, and poignant drama, the duo uncovers Dorian—a cunning Aeonite traitor secretly conspiring with the enigmatic US President. As tensions rise and loyalties are tested, Bjorn and Zorn face formidable threats and moral dilemmas, culminating in a dramatic showdown that will determine humanity's fate: can these interstellar allies spark redemption, or will Earth’s legacy end in ruin?

Let me begin by stating that if you have religious sensitivities, my works may not be suitable for you. I started writing in the early 90s. A three-act stage musical, meticulously crafted by my hand, languished in obscurity, never finding a stage. Life got in the way. After a 25-year pause, I rediscovered my passion for writing in 2013.

Racism, homophobia and religious entitlement are major social issues in the world today. People hate based on skin colour or sexual preference, and many do this based on their religious beliefs. Their Religious beliefs give them entitlement, to do this because the other person doesn’t fit their criteria, or beliefs. It is time to take a stand against religious zealots, and the best way is to teach our children to love all people, and accept all people, as friends.

To hopefully reach them before they are poisoned with ancient rubbish. That weirdo, that no one talks to in the school yard might be a BFF, with more in common than they realise.

I like to make a statement with a message in everything I do, holding a mirror to the darkness of human nature.
