Upon reading Starship Troopers written by Robert A. Heinlein, in his final year of High School, the idea of military service was planted into his head. Upon graduating, he enlisted in the Royal Australian Navy and was selected to be a Warfare Officer. Where he served for several years on a number of frigates, amphibious landing crafts and minehunting vessels. He travelled the world extensively on exercise and operation before honourably discharging.
Since then Daniel has gone on to be recognised as UN Peace Ambassador and is studying his Juris Doctorate whilst juggling commitments to sequels and other writing projects.
The Distant Solace book series was written to be a love letter to the science fiction genre and its surrounding influences that Daniel has enjoyed his entire life.view less
