It was then that I decided to write a novel where many of the ideas about the afterlife and the NDE could be explored in a fictional and entertaining setting. I also decided to make use of my own area of expertise which is in Science and Mathematics to give my novel a proper scientific feel. All references to real science and to Astronomy in particular are correct to my knowledge and are well researched.
One of the ideas which I particularly wanted to explore was that of animals as well as humans advancing in their spiritual development. In the story Wolf is Michael's great friend in the Canine animal kingdom and it is he, due to his great devotion and animal logic, who is able to steer Michael towards his goal.
When I finished writing the first book I realised that the story was far from over and that the main characters still had a long road to travel. The second book (NOW AVAILABLE) expands on many storylines which were left open at the end of the first book and introduces some new characters some of whom are also non-human. Also the romantic love story between Michael and Alana which was only hinted at in the first book is now full on.
(In case you are wondering about the two girls pictured on the previous page they are my real-life models for my characters Bea and Shantara.)
All the characters are still very much alive for me in my mind and I have started work on Book 3.
