Now this novella requires some explanation. This story, the first of a trilogy, was inspired by the reports of two policemen (in England) chasing a glowing sphere in their car through the countryside one night. (It's even on YouTube). There have been similar reports in other countries as well, of course. It made me wonder, (if it was true and they weren't both dreaming or under-the-influence) where such a sphere might have come from and why. And that led to an extrapolation of what might happen if it had landed......and that, in turn, led to a second part, and my agent at the time suggested that if I turn it into a trilogy, it might get published. Unfortunately I began to run into trouble near the end of part two, and so I never did finish the third part. Also, you should bear in mind that this was written in 1969, at the height of the cold war,long before the days of mobile phones and other modern technology. And long before Spielberg's magnum opus;- Close Encounters. Interestingly, several aspects of the story have become true, but for different reasons than mine. You'll see what I mean. I am rather pleased that at 21 years old I inadvertently predicted what would prove to be true in 2012.

This, although written in story form, is actually a short, humorous film. It's completely visual humour, (the best kind as there are no language barriers). It nearly got made, too, but back in 1968 when I wrote it at the tender age of 20, I couldn't raise the additional 25K needed for it. Pity. If it was made today it would still be just as funny, - easier too, with CGI, but more expensive. So, producers, - cough up!

Follow Chronos find his parents and struggle with the problems of being a successor of a god.

An exciting new beginning for a young man, travelling to a new world and a new future - but there is something a little tricky about this apparent Uptopia....

"It's just that a great night for me involves pyjamas, a cup of tea and either a good book, a good television show, or a good cd." Paige then shut her locker and faced Freddie with a shrug, "I wouldn't really know what to do at a party except stand around feeling awkward."
