Kingdom of Clockwork
My latest novel, Kingdom of Clockwork, is available from the above website (in print and audio versions) and from Amazon (in print and Kindle versions).
I come from Ireland, but have lived in Denmark for many years. I write in a style that I call 'Nordic Steampunk', which is based on the Scandinavian Renaissance rather than the Victorian era. My books are set in a future Scandinavia, where mankind is rediscovering the technology of the past after an apocalypse caused by running out of fossil fuels. Their main technology is therefore based on the power of the wind, which they store using clockwork. The inspiration is drawn from real Scandinavian history and locations, but with fanciful touches such as airships, clockwork computers, etc.

I have recently organized the Copenhagen Dreaming event in the Round Tower of Copenhagen (which features in Kingdom of Clockwork), and I hope this will become a regular event in the city:

In 2015 I will be attending the Archpelacon event in Finland and The Asylum in England with Kingdom of Clockwork, where I will also present an Oculus Rift virtual reality program written by my son Christopher, in which people can take a virtual airship ride around the Copenhagen of my books.
