Résumé

*** Get 3 BOOKS FREE > lazloferran.com *** Book 1 Running: The Alien in the Mirror is FREE. A man hell-bent on revenge for the death of his friend in battle!Seeking revenge for the death of a friend ten long years ago, Major Jake Nanden has pursued his own personal demons with an almost religious fervour through life and through battle. He is a soldier so highly decorated for bravery that his fame reaches far beyond the desolate Jupiter moon, Io, where his battalion is stationed.
His victories in the Jupiter Wars are hollow though, for he is a man scared of his own soul. His life seems to be a trap from which he cannot escape. His is the Replicant Company, and replicants, or clones, are despised by all. Likened to a cross between Blade Runner and Paths of Glory, you simply must read this beautifully constructed, intensely dark and powerful Science Fiction thriller with a twist, if you love Phillip K.
Dick and Isaac Asimov. You can read Chapter One of this book FREE when you purchase any of the 3 eBook Short Stories collections - Inchoate: (Short Stories Volume I), Eighteen, Blue: (Short Stories Volume II) or Vampire: Beneficence: (Short Stories Volume III). Character interview with Jake Nanden. Name (s): Jake NandenAge: 34Please tell us a little about yourself. I am 5'11', dark hair, short - Army cut, slightly curly.
Green eyes. Describe your appearance in 10 words or less. Getting middle aged, slightly paunchy with drying skin - like paper in places - except my mech arm. That's synthetic skin on there and as smooth and supple as the day it was sprayed on. I even had mine tattooed but don't tell anyone. Would you kill for those you love?I kill every day - most days - to keep my culture intact. I would say that is killing for those I love.
Of course there is a moral code. And as a soldier the moral code is almost everything. After a while. killing. it sometimes seems to be the only thing you have left. Family are too far away. Do you like animals?I love animals. Their love is unconditional. You can never quite be sure with humans, can you?Do you have a family?Ha! Ha! Yes. A test-tube. No seriously my mother - Mary, my sister Justine and a dog - a collie called Frisky.
My adoptive dad was the famous robotics designer Robert R. Nanden but he's dead. My mother was his assistant and pretty accomplished at that!Can you remember something from your childhood which influences your behaviour? I am not sure about any of my childhood memories. They are probably all implanted. I am a replicant. The first memory I am sure about is playing on the grass with my adoptive mother watching me playing cricket.
She shouted out, "Jake! You are such a talented cyborg!"Even at my tender age, I knew a replicant was not the same thing as a cyborg and I knew that she should know, as her first husband had been a famous robot designer. Her words had always stuck in my head. But anyway, adoptive parents of replicant children are always told to create some vivid experience for their kid in the first few days so that the imprinting takes properly.
So it's probably not significant. Do you have any phobias?Mirrors. Can't stand them. They make me sweat and. well, I'm very nervous around them. I avoid them. Please give us an interesting and unusual fact about yourself. I write books - well, I am writing my first; a detective thriller. It's kind of Raymond Chandler-ish. I call it Chandleresque, but I guess that's bad English. My adoptive parents are first generation J5 - that's a space station - so they kinda inherited a USAC - United States of America and Canada - accent.
Anyway, I am rambling. The main character is Dusty. He'd a sucker for the pretty ladies!

Biographie de Lazlo Ferran

Lazlo Ferran: Exploring the Landscapes of Truth. Educated near Oxford, during English author Lazlo Ferran's extraordinary life, he has been an aeronautical engineering student, dispatch rider, graphic designer, full-time busker, guitarist and singer, recording two albums. Having grown up in rural Buckinghamshire Lazlo says:"The beautiful Chiltern Hills offered the ideal playground for a child's mind, in contrast to the ultra-strict education system of Bucks."Brought up as a Buddhist, he has travelled widely, surviving a student uprising in Athens and living for a while in Cairo, just after Sadat's assassination.
Later, he spent some time in Central Asia and was only a few blocks away from gunfire during an attempt to storm the government buildings of Bishkek in 2006. He has a keen interest in theologies and philosophies of the Far East, Middle East, Asia and Eastern Europe. After a long and successful career within the science industry, Lazlo Ferran left to concentrate on writing, to continue exploring the landscapes of truth.
