More About the Author

Simon Haynes is the author of four Hal Spacejock novels, a number of articles on writing and publishing, and several short stories, one of which collected an Aurealis Award in 2001. He divides his time between writing fiction and computer software, with frequent 25-40km bike rides to blow the cobwebs away.

Born in the UK and raised in the south of Spain, Simon emigrated to Australia with his family in 1983. He's a founding member of Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine, and lives in Perth with his wife and two children.

His goal is to write fifteen Hal Spacejock books (adult OR junior series!) before someone takes his keyboard away.

Neat tidy little snippet of how many players does it take to have a game.

Not only a game of golf but who's top of the commercial vidioscope reality sweepstakes.

Off world no less.

Hardened SF readers will get the story quickly .

I think it could have been a little longer as felt some of the characters just missed something.

None the less a nice little package . No cheats from me ,you have to read it .
