Tim Hardie grew up in the seaside town of Southport during the 1970s and 1980s. This was before anyone had even heard of the internet and Dungeons & Dragons was cutting edge. Living in a house where every available wall was given over to bookshelves, he discovered fantasy writers like JRR Tolkien, Michael Moorcock, Ursula Le Guin, Alan Garner, Stephen Donaldson and Susan Cooper. Those stories led him into the science fiction worlds created by Frank Herbert, Philip K Dick, Arthur C Clarke and HP Lovecraft.

After training to become a lawyer Tim lived in London for three years before moving to Yorkshire in 1999, where he has worked ever since in a variety of legal, commercial, financial and management roles. His writing began as a hobby in his early twenties and has gradually grown into something else that now threatens to derail his promising career.

Tim writes epic fantasy that will appeal to fans of Joe Abercrombie, John Gwynne and Robin Hobb.

A mindbending YA urban fantasy/sci-fi thriller for readers of all ages.

A teenage girl stumbles out of an alley in Ottawa, concussed, with no memory of her life. On the run from sword-wielding operatives with inexplicable telepathic and telekinetic abilities, she soon discovers that she not only possesses the same abilities, but is extraordinarily skilled in martial arts.

Fleeing to Toronto to search for clues about her identity, she encounters others like her. She is given refuge at an international school for Telepaths, where she can learn to use her Abilities and stay hidden from the world of Typicals. They believe that she is from a shadowy organization that they only recently became aware of. They fear she may be a spy or an assassin, and that her amnesia may be either fake or intentional.

As fragments of her childhood return, Zoe begins to suspect that she may not like who she once was—and that who she is may literally cease to exist. She soon becomes swept up in events that are thousands of years in the making, and realizes that even more important than learning who she used to be is choosing who she wants to be.

Sometimes adventure knocks. Other times, it kicks the door in.

“Dearest Alexandria and Ozymandias,

If you are reading this, I have perished. My demise likely involved some manner of spiked pit or curiously fanged beast, so it’s doubtful I suffered long. Do not try to find me—the path is too perilous, and I am lost to the mortal plane.

”
