Damion Paul Hart was born in Johnson City, Tennessee in 1972. He resides in Georgia with aspirations of moving to Australia. Growing up on classic English novels and Stephen King fantasy, he later turned to pulp-science fiction magazines such as Galaxy, Analog and other futuristic short stories from the 1940s and 50s.

Chapter Two

Stan Jasper sat in his claustrophobic office in University College London surrounded by shelves of disorganized books, papers, geographic maps. Walls covered with awards, plaques. The outer world only apparent through a single iron wrought window, which the university had sealed closed many years ago.
