Love's Deadly Dawning

Love’s Deadly Dawning is the first part of a series of five novels (The Jewels of Ooombis) that spans all of human history, from Cro Magnon times to the near future. It begins with the imminent destruction of a populated planet (Ooombis – three o’s, and that’s not spelling mistake!). Two of its natives find their way to Earth, carrying with them a ring and a brooch that have trapped within their gemstones their wildest passions. It is these jewels that the series of books is about, and the way an alien sexuality affects human history. The Jewels of Ooombis is the kind of book I personally like to read. Huge in scope, it is simultaneously both mischievous and serious, and being fiction any references to real events are not necessarily trustworthy facts, though I did a considerable amount of research when I started writing it. Love’s Deadly Dawning deals with the arrival of the gems on Earth, and the brutal demise of the attractive young couple who bore them. Be prepared to weep!
