About this ebook
‘Duet’ was written between 1980 and 82. It is divorced from its forerunner ‘Glue’ in style and content but there is a ‘geo-political’ element to both stories. The author regarded them both (and the final saga) as ‘speculative fiction’, by which he meant fiction set in the very near future, not ‘science fiction’. ‘Duet’s prophesy of American Football in the UK came true a year or two later, and Margaret Thatcher (as more recently, Tony Blair) made a partial reality of the Anglo-American pact that the character, Adrian Moorehead MP dreamt of.
Benjamin Benedict
Benjamin Benedict lived in Los Angeles and wrote a number of short stories in the late seventies and early eighties. These were lost until some manuscripts were found in a garage near Van Nuys. In more recent times, Mr Benedict seems to have traveled through Mexico, on into South America, and the last contact received from him was from an internet connection in Patagonia. This was sent in early 2010 and nothing has been heard from him since.
