In case you’ve never heard of him…

The author of The Four Pillars of Heaven lives in a northern suburb of Sydney, Australia where wallabies, funnel web spiders, brown snakes, and cockatoos (white, black, and grey) frolic in his front yard. Although they all don’t usually do so at the same time. His back yard isn’t wide enough to support much more than a hand full of lizards large and small.

The five books that make up this epic novel is the first major literary undertaking he will admit to at this point. Although he has considerable experience in technical writing and training over the span of his long and illustrious professional career.

Two more works will follow (relatively) shortly—a novel based on experiences on a remote island in a backwater province of Indonesia, and a narrative on eight years spent in Papua New Guinea. There is no telling what will happen after this.

He trusts you will enjoy his unique approach to storytelling.
