An Author's Lifelong Love Affair With Storytelling

My name is Nick Cook and I have always adored well crafted stories with great characters that leap off the page. I get sucked in by books where extraordinary things happen in our everyday world. I absolutely love the thrill of discovering a new series that I can't put down. I was lucky enough to grow up during a golden age of science fiction and became totally addicted to books by Issac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, and Frank Herbert. 

The Apollo moon landings also had a profound effect on me and triggered my life long love of astronomy and science. My favourite film of all time is Blade Runner because, in essence, it's a story about what it is to be human. I certainly can't get enough of shows like Stranger Things and Fringe, and can even fondly remember The Twilight Zone and Outer Limits for their great storytelling. 

I quite literally dream science fiction.

If any of this strikes a chord with you then my own books are for you. I craft my stories to within an inch of their lives until they live on the page and in my reader's imaginations and hearts. 

So who is this Nick Cook guy whose link you just clicked on? Well, I'm the British sci-fi author of Fractured Light and the Cloud Riders trilogies, the Earth Song series (very X-Files) that begins with The Signal.

I'm what's known as a hybrid author, someone who was originally traditionally published with twelve years of experience but who has taken the huge leap across to indie and is now having the time of his life.

The fact that you're here at all suggest that you're something of a kindred spirit who loves great sci-fi.
