Discussions about David K Bennett's fiction
Nearly twenty three years ago, I had a story that entered my mind and just wouldn’t let go until I started to write it down. That story was bigger than I ever imagined and grew into a trilogy even before I’d finished the first volume. I’m happy to say that today that trilogy has been …
