Ian Kidd

I grew up in South Yorkshire, England, before emigrating to South Australia at the age of sixteen. My writing ambitions began as a child, when I became notorious in my class for writing short horror stories that would probably have them calling in the child psychologists nowadays! I have written everything from non-fiction ebooks to published short fiction, and served as script editor on two proposed horror feature film scripts for an LA based director. In terms of fiction I have written dozens of novellas, including more than 70 stories in the "Ian's Gang" sci-fi adventure series. I still live in Queensland, where I work as a freelance writer.

Steven let out a sigh.

We don't know that, Steven argued.

It's obvious, said Toupee.

Show them the photos, Balding ordered.

Who are these guys? Philip joked. Tweedledum and Tweedledee?

Steven didn't smile, simply handing over a selection of photographs.

Ian examined them and frowned, puzzled by all the fuss over the gang dancing with a couple of girls. So? he demanded, deciding that going on the offensive was the best tactic. Aren't we allowed to keep female company now?

You see the short, petite dark-haired girl with Scott? Toupee questioned.

And the fair girl with Matthew? Balding demanded.

Yeah?

Scott's girl is known as Rebecka Liedeberg. Matthew's friend is Elin Moodyson. They are not from this planet.

Ian looked up in shock. What?

Those two were pulled in by one of our agents a couple of years ago. They claimed they were aliens from the planet Zakaria. Of course, we thought they were taking the piss, Toupee explained. "Then they escaped. We've been after them for years. Then you guys turn
