Ragged Time

In the 25th century, humans have colonised the solar system, only to discover war awaits their tentative steps towards the stars. Humanity is locked in a desperate battle against the xenophobic and ruthless Draxtyr, alien warlords bent on the annihilation of any race opposing them. As civilisation teeters on the edge of collapse, Earth's last hope is Gideon Prime, a powerful android soldier, created to be the ultimate warrior.But destiny has other plans. As a child, Tom Kane's family always insisted he was born in the corner of the living room, behind the TV. That strange assertion, true or false, seems to have set the tone for the rest of his life. Kane's mother inspired him to write. Science Fiction, in the form of Doctor Who and Isaac Asimov inspired his love of the genre. Monty Python inspired him to be silly and he continues to blame Billy Connolly for his infrequent bursts of bad language In the corner or behind the TV, what is officially known about Tom Kane's birth is that it took place in England on a dark and stormy night.
