I am a semi-retired electronics engineer and programmer who has published four novels which fantasise about the mystery of the unknown, people, politics, AI, and the (generally optimistic) future of humanity. I have zero marketing skills/budget, and a next to zero profile on social media, so you are very unlikely to stumble upon my work, or even find it when searching! I am happy to let my readers and history be the judge of my books rather than any hype I can generate.

My first three paperback books, The Summer of Reasoning, were a near-future sci-fi trilogy of paperback books, the series was combined into a single large eBook in 2023. My fourth book, A Level of Consciousness, published in 2024, is a stand-alone techno-thriller with maybe a hint of sci-fi. The books are available in paperback and kindle format at Amazon, or for other eBook readers, as a free download from this website. Click the image/links to the right to go straight to them.

I am currently working on my fifth (or third, depending how you see it) book, there is no deadline for this, I am already 200,000 words into what is likely a 100,000 word novel and maybe 25% there! Like everything I do my floor is littered with plots that weren’t quite right, characters I lost interested in, or stuff where I just thought, no; so it will come when it is good and ready and only then.

I also very occasionally write technical, non-technical, humorous, cynical and speculative blog posts detailing other personal projects, the progress and pitfalls of my journey through life, and my battle to keep a sense of focus in a world of rapid change. You can follow this journey by clicking the links to the right. If you do need to get in touch I do have very aggressive spam filters on my email, so no attachments, no links and ensure you make the title as relevant as possible, I try to reply to all genuine emails. Semi-retirement also means not checking your emails every day, so don’t be surprised if I don’t reply instantly. My contacts page has all the details.

History

Roving Dynamics Ltd, is the company name I registered back in 2012, after my contracting business got too big, and the companies I worked for got even bigger. It sounds kinda fancy, but it was always just me, (Boz) and I prided myself on actually making things. The business is still running just in case I am called to support some legacy systems, and until the hardware I developed reaches its end of life, but these days I’m developing less and less, and writing more and more.
