Two novels. Two impossible signals.
Two novels. Two impossible signals. One universe asking whether humanity is ready to listen.
THE LEAP BETWEEN STARS begins at the edge of extinction, where Earth is dying and hope is built into the bones of a living ship.
The Mokowhiti is not a weapon. Not an ark of conquest. She is a vessel of continuance – shaped by science, whakapapa, memory, and the fragile stubbornness of people who refuse to let the human story end.
When her crew make the first impossible jump, they discover that the darkness between stars may not be empty at all.
It may have been waiting.
ECHOES OF THE EARTH turns the question homeward.
A century from now, the planet is feverish, altered, and half-forgotten beneath the glare of survival. Then Dana returns to the Central Otago valley that raised her and feels something moving beneath the soil.
Two short. One long.
A pulse. A pattern. A message.
Her search leads from the listening plains to Antarctica, where something older than humanity waits beneath the ice — an intelligence that may understand every language, every grief, and every living thread binding Earth together.
But contact is never simple.
It is wonder with consequences.
THE LEAP BETWEEN STARS and ECHOES OF THE EARTH are my first two novels. Inspired by the vastness of Peter F. Hamilton, the deep-time imagination of Stephen Baxter, the cosmic awe of Arthur C. Clarke, the humane intelligence of Ursula K. Le Guin, and the sharp, sideways wit of Terry Pratchett, these stories are sweeping, emotional science fiction for readers who love living ships, first contact, ancient intelligences, found family, damaged worlds, and the dangerous beauty of being answered.
