I was born and raised near a small town in Southern Ireland. My interest in pre-history began while I studied Architecture in the city of Dublin where the gift of skepticism, inherited from my mother, inspired me to ask during one class, “Were kings really buried under those huge mounds of earth and rock?” My interest in pre-history had begun. In a search to discover what other cultures might look like I traveled to India via Turkey and Iran - originally Persia. Later in Melbourne, Australia, my studies extended to the 50,000-year-old cultures and beliefs of the Aboriginal peoples. As a teenager, it had been sad to learn that a scientist named Charles Darwin decided that we were descended ‘…from a hairy…quadruped...’ (in his Descent of Man). Luckily, as a child, I had been taken to see the movie The Wizard of Oz and since then have always sensed that behind every scientific “fact” is the possibility of a fantastic reality. More recently, when insights about what had happened in prehistory began to form in my imagination, it was time to write them down. My first novel began.
