October means Octocon!
October means Octocon!
To celebrate the Irish National Science Fiction Convention, Octocon, I am making one of my books free for the first time during the Con. Hope to see you there!
DINING OUT WITH THE ICE GIANTS
Dining Out with the Ice Giants
Grab your copy on Kindle, 10 - 11 - 12 October.
This book follows journalists in a future London. If you have read my work in other genres but not tried my SF yet, why not give it a go? The book is suitable for a general readership. This book is the second in the series 'Dining Out Around The Solar System' but all of this series can be read as standalones.
Last month I released the third book in this series, DINING OUT WITH THE GAS GIANTS and it started selling on the first day. I'm thrilled that readers enjoy these characters and their world so much.
Recently I have been to a lecture on Golden Rice at the Royal Dublin Society, which covered molecular biology, planet genetics and the Green Revolution as well as GMOs. Yesterday I went to another lecture on Kilmacurragh House and Gardens in Co. Wicklow. This was given by the Head Gardener, and Kilmacurragh is part of the Dublin Botanic Gardens. The RDS founded the first Botanic Gardens in Ireland, so as a Society we have a long and interested history where plant preservation and innovations are concerned.
I also took a Radio Presenter Course with the Irish Academy of Public Relations, which was a very enjoyable day and taught me a lot, as well as being great fun.
Interesting fiction books I've read recently include:
Stephen Booth's 'Dead And Buried', Ian McDonald's 'Luna', 'Zer0es' by Chuck Wendig, and Elizabeth Chadwick's 'The Winter Crown'. And the factual books have been just fascinating, such as:
'The Disaster Profiteers' by John C Mutter, 'Disaster Capitalism' by Anthony Lowenstein and 'It's Not Yet Dark' by Simon Fitzmaurice.
