This is the site for an exciting new story – The Maelstrom Mission, an action-packed adventure for ‘young adults’ – and anyone else, really – set against the background of Global Warming.

If, like Freddie McBain, the hero, you’re into skateboarding, climate change and hurricanes (admittedly, a bit of an odd combination) and enjoy large than life characters with some really weird powers, It might be for you …

The site introduces you to the goodies, baddies, locations and general events and you can also read the first 40 or so pages here The Mission Begins.  Like In Rainbows, Radiohead's download album, they're yours, free. NB: Since the site went live, there have been many requests for the rest of the book. This can be sent via PDF, but in instalments only - since the book is quite long (300 pages) and PDF technology seems only be able to accomodate 50/100 pages without overheating! The Second Instalment, Chapters, 10 - 21, are available and will be sent out to all who have asked asap. Just think of it as a long-running TV series! To make it easier these chapters will be put up on the site soon ...

If your appetite is whetted and you’re desperate to read the rest, send an e-mail via the Contact Form for more information on how to obtain the concluding chapters. The story has everything you’d expect from a great, favourite, movie – surprising characters, a chase scene, love interest, tragedy,  and, since Freddie is a dedicated skater, a bit of a Kickflip in the tail ...
