Born in 1965, Andrew Bannister grew up in Cornwall. He studied Geology at Imperial College and went to work in the North Sea before becoming an Environmental Consultant. For the day job, he specialises in green transport and corporate sustainability, but he has always written – initially for student newspapers and fanzines before moving on, encouraged by creative writing courses, to fiction. He’s always been a reader and has loved science fiction since childhood. From the classics of the 50s and 60s to the present day, he’s wanted it all: space, stars, astonishment and adventure - and now he’s discovered that writing it is even better. Andrew lives in Leicestershire.
In the vast, artificial galaxy called The Spin, a rebellion has been crushed.
Viklun Haas, industrialist and leader of the victorious Hegemony, is eliminating all remnants of the opposition. Starting with his daughter.
But from her remote monastery prison, Fleare Haas has had time to plan her next move: a break for freedom that will take her across The Spin to the cluster of fallen planets known as the Catastrophe Curve. It is a journey that will take her and a team of loyal friends from exile to the very frontiers of a new war.
Because, in the brutal and despotic empire of The Fortunate, word has reached viceroy Alameche of a most unusual piece of plunder from their latest invasion.
For hundreds of millions of years, the planets and stars of The Spin have been the only testament to the god-like engineers that created them. Only now, beneath the surface of a ruined planet, one of their machines has been found . . .
The first in a trilogy of standalone novels set in a brilliantly conceived far-future, Creation Machine marks the arrival of an exciting new science fiction talent.
