I am a semi-retired electronics engineer and programmer who has published four novels which fantasise about the mystery of the unknown, people, politics, AI, and the (generally optimistic) future of humanity. I have zero marketing skills/budget, and a next to zero profile on social media, so you are very unlikely to stumble upon my work – or even find it when searching! I am happy to let my readers and history be the judge of my books rather than the hype and sales.

My first three paperback books were part of The Summer of Reasoning, a near-future sci-fi trilogy, the series was combined into a single large book in 2023, and is now available as a free download. The fourth book, A Level of Consciousness, published in 2024, is a stand-alone techno-thriller available on-line everywhere in e-book or paperback and also as a free ePub download.

I am currently working on my fifth (or third, depending how you see it) book, there is no deadline for this, I am already 200,000 words into a 100,000 word novel and maybe 25% there! Like everything I do my floor is littered with plots that weren’t quite right, characters I lost interested in, or stuff where I just thought, no; so it will come when it is good and ready and only then.

I also very occasionally write technical, non-technical, humorous, cynical and speculative blog posts detailing other personal projects, the progress and pitfalls of my journey through life, and my battle to keep a sense of focus in a world of rapid change. You can follow this journey by clicking the links to the right. If you do need to get in touch I do have very aggressive spam filters on my email, so no attachments, no links and ensure you make the title as relevant as possible, I try to reply to all genuine emails. Semi-retirement also means not checking your emails every day, so don’t be surprised if I don’t reply instantly. My contacts page has all the details.

History

Roving Dynamics Ltd, is the company name I registered back in 2012, after my contracting business got too big, and the companies I worked for got even bigger. It sounds kinda fancy, but it was always just me, (Boz) and I prided myself on actually making things. The business is still running just in case I am called to support some legacy systems, and until the hardware I developed reaches its end of life, but these days I’m developing less and less, and writing more and more.
