Echoes of Erebus

Beschreibung

Sarah's got daddy issues. He lives in her head, built her out of fish, and killed millions of people. But he's really sorry. Honest. Sarah gets by with her advanced abilities, and some good friends... who have no idea that she's the product of a genocidal killer, or that he lives on in her head. At least it's comforting to know that he didn't murder the fishes used to create her body. Or the seagull. At least she can trust that he's turned into a good... entity now. Right? She can trust him. Right? Sarah hides her illegal nanite origins in an effort to build an ordinary life, but the legacy of dad's horrors makes it difficult. Especially when new but familiar zombie-like abominations begin to appear in the city. (Echoes of Erebus is a complete story unto itself, readers interested in its world may also wish to consider the two preceding books, Lifehack and Watching Yute.)

While cycling to a computer repair job in 2001, Joseph was struck by a car, resulting in T5/6 paraplegia. Since then, he has married, and had two children, Caitlin and Lachlan.

Later dealing with significant paraplegia-related pressure wounds that resulted in another six months of hospitalization, Joseph gradually recovered to a 'healthy' paraplegic condition.

Joseph began volunteering at the local seniors centre, leading to a job. This position ended less than a year later due to Covid-19. A few months later, Joseph began working online for another non-profit organization dealing with community projects and seniors, and a company facilitating supervised access, for which he edited reports and co-ordinated supervisors.

These were cut short by the emergence of multiple sclerosis, which was diagnosed after a significant attack of the condition. Despite first impressions, MS has not managed to entirely stop his writing.
