A scientific experiment gone wrong flings Jen and Liz, a couple of unsuspecting and unremarkable women from Dublin into the deepest, darkest reaches of the multiverse. Stranded, and aboard a small, but advanced spacefaring vessel called Peach, they’re compelled to embark on a journey they’d really rather not be going on. A journey that they hope will return them to the familiarity of home, their lives, and their acquaintances.

Flitting their way through an abandoned outpost on a long-lost snowball planet, the girls make friends with a dainty blue alien who calls herself Imf. A set of clues, markers on a galactic map, found by their cute and bubbly acquaintance in a part of the facility she calls the ‘nice place’ leads them to a hidden space station in the void between galaxies. A spot of shopping, a pub crawl, and a drunken accident with an indecipherable piece of offworld tech later, and they’re off to the third marker: a geoengineered planet they hope holds the solution to their dilemma.

SPLIT OPINION, the sequel to WITNESS PROTECTION is a tale of floaty balls, knickers, robot dragons, hypercharged alien adverts, and the occasional tipple. And it’s available here on Amazon.

As usual, AI wasn’t used in the writing of this book. It really does tend to come up with incredibly generic tropes and storylines. Since writing some of my earlier blog posts, I’ve experimented with newer models. Although Kimi K2 is a promising creative writer, I’d still rather go with my own plot lines, twists and turns, and hand-crafted phraseology.
