Scott Burke is a rather bizarre chap who manages to eke out a living on the fringes of society, and as such, he tends to wander from settlement to settlement espousing his heretical thoughts, until the inhabitants start sharpening their pitchforks and he beats a hasty retreat. Having grown up in Australia, his first novel, The Ancient Isle, is a unique science fiction take on his formative surrounds. Due to necessity, more than anything else, Scott is a keen traveller and currently resides in anonymity in London.
