About this ebook
A 24th century cycling hill climb with a difference! In Britain, the road racing season ends with hill climbs raced all over the country, as riders end their competition for the year by hauling themselves up steep hills. For Jonas Zemke, these small hills are not big enough. Noticing a race up the biggest hill of them all, the highest volcano in the known universe, Olympus Mons on terraformed Mars, he embarks upon a quest to conquer this most extreme of challenges. However, life works in strange ways and through various twists of fate is plunged into other challenges that go way beyond the difficulty of any bicycle race. With exclusive foreword from double Commonwealth Games champion Paul Curran.

Well hello everyone. I am the creator of the Galactic Echo, which is the general fiction concept on which everything I write about is based. It is an idea of life in the 24th century, based on things that might really happen rather than stories about aliens and the usual sci-fi fare.On a more personal note, I have lived in the North East of England all my life, I have a wide range of interests. The main one of which is cycle racing in which I regularly compete up to National Championship level, so in case you are wondering yes I have raced against such illustrious competition including Sean Yates, Bradley Wiggins and Alex Dowsett. I also enjoy photography but find with my writing I have a sense of expressing myself in a way that is impossible to do with any other means, and hope that my love of the written artform comes out in the various stories you will see produced.I have created a website which has lots of things to do with the Galactic Echo, including loads of freebies connected to the stories, www.galactic-echo.com. I hope to make the Galactic Echo a sort of niche sci fi concept, rather than just have stories churned out every now and then. Feel free to contact me via the website or Facebook/Twitter, would love to hear from you if you have any queries about the Galactic Echo!
