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.

Banix entered the dark alley behind Ian's Gang Base. His electronic brain was so busy reviewing the game, checking and cross-checking for any evidence of cheating on the part of his opponents, that he at first failed to notice something was wrong in the alley, but a flash of light drew him out of his data processing reverie. Banix looked up, seeing the flashes of light like electrical currents sporadically erupting across the alleyway.

Then he saw it.

In front of him, five or six thick black lines ran across nothing, big cracks in the air itself, as though the air were made of glass. Banix approached the phenomenon warily. It wasn't stretched across the whole alley, so he could go around it and carry on, but he couldn't just leave it. What was it? Was it dangerous? Banix considered contacting the gang to likewise observe the phenomenon, but a large crack rearranged his programming. As he watched, two more thick black lines ripped across the
