Biographie de l'auteur

Charles F Angwinhas worked in the aerospace industry for thirty years.¿ He was drawn to it from his youngest dayswhen he read every science fiction book that the local library had tooffer.¿ Growing up in the era whenscience fiction stories revolved around the then unknowns of space, themysteries of the universe,¿prompted him to pursue science and engineering.¿ The style of hard science fiction of the1950s and 60s seems to have faded as science peels back the unknown with evermore minutia.¿ Many mysteries stillexist.¿ This trilogy represents theauthor's views of the remaining unknowns mixed with adventure and hardscience.¿¿
