Another Milestone

Another Milestone

I reached another milestone today. I’m halfway through the Lost Colony, the third volume in the series. You may have noticed a new look to the site, with more illustrations. I’d like to thank Kati Aitken, a talented artist from Fife in Scotland for giving physical expression to the planet Alpha 5, which has hitherto existed only in my imagination. You can find her illustration in the section on the planet. Thanks also to my web designer Rob, for sourcing the other images. You will also notice that chapter two of a Children’s Crusade, book one in the series is now available on the site for you to read.     

Welcome

Welcome

Lights in the sky is the website for a series of novels set roughly a century from now.
So far the series comprises two completed novels, A Children’s Crusade, and The Fixed Stars, another book is underway, and a fourth is planned.
On this site you can find out more about the world of the novels, the characters (human and otherwise!), and the author. You can read a serialised version of the first book on the site, posted in regular installments over the next year, and you can also post comments and ask questions via the discussion board.

Look forward to hearing from you…
