Description
Hayden's realm is a voyage into space and time like no other, crammed with twists that will keep you questioning what will happen next. It is a journey of a man (Max Hayden) who finds himself trapped in an alternative realm - like another dimension, where everything he knows is not quite as it was. Max is able to pilot a newly developed anti-gravity ship, but this technology attracts the attention of an advanced alien intelligence. Thus begins an adventure that catapults Max on a quest to return home, but before he gets there he faces the impending colonisation of planet Earth by a seemingly far more sinister entity.
Adult science fiction. Buzzwords: space, alien, artificial intelligence, alternative reality, other dimension.
About the Author
Born in Belfast in 1945, Joe Gillespie won a place at The Royal College of Art and graduated with a Master's Degree in Visual Communication. He worked in the advertising industry in London before setting up his own company, Pixel Productions, developing interactive multimedia. An ardent sci-fi reader, he used his writing skills developed from advertising copy-writing and penned numerous short stories and longer projects that unfortunately ran out of steam due to pressure of work. Now retired to sunny Dorset, he lives a less hectic life involving bird watching, astronomy and catching-up on ideas to change the universe for the better.
Reviews
"Hayden's Realm packs enough spaceships, gadgets, inter-dimensional quests, rogue government agents and inter-specific pleasantries to sate any Sci-Fi enthusiast. In efficient, whirlwind fashion we follow pilot and engineer Max Hayden on uncharted journeys between dimensional realms. Whether we're stuck in the wrong reality or awaiting alien invasion, the ride is seldom short of puzzles to solve and breath to catch. Gillespie's eagerness to display his aeronautical knowledge and technological imagination leaves little room for character development, humour or literary ingenuity - but perhaps such details would only seem trivial or incongruous in this choppy, breakneck tale. Hayden's Realm twists, turns, explodes and catapults us off into space, doing more than enough to keep its pages freshly turned." - Review by Martin Whittlemore
