Charles Breakfield & Rox Burkey – Is that a Thermonuclear Killer AI Virus in Your Pocket or Are You Happy to See me?

How can two such sweet, endearing people write world threatening fiction (and make it look easy)?

Tech Thriller Authors Charles Breakfield and Rox BurkeyWelcome one and all to another Northern Lights Books’ author interview plunge. Today’s guests are an enigma.

Not really, they write about enigmas. Specifically, the Enigma TechnoThriller series (there are nine books in the series as we publish this interview in early July 2018).

Known as Breakfield and Burkey, Charles Breakfield and Rox Burkey have known each other professionally and as friends for mumbledy-mumbledy years. About mumbledy years ago they realized both enjoyed writing beyond their work-a-day requirements and decided to collaborate on things they knew from work. Rox specializes in corporate communications and Charles specializes in security, communications technology and anything with bits and bytes. Their work takes them across the globe and involves them in high level discussions most of us wouldn’t understand. Fortunately, they remove the unnecessary technospeak from their novels and leave in the thriller parts. Good stuff, that!

Wendy Weiss – Crimes of Desperation and Other Insurance Oddities

Be careful which medicos you allow into your home

Medical Thriller Author Wendy WeissHello all and welcome to our continuing series of author interviews. Today’s author, Wendy Weiss, is an expert on desperate crimes…no, no, no, that’s not correct. She’s an RN working in the insurance industry (by day) and that experience has led her to understand people walking the edge of what medical science knows and what the insurance industry will do, not always a fun place to be.

There’s an English teacher in every bookclub.

 
I’d like everyone to stand up and give Wendy Weiss a big round of applause for taking part in our exciting adventure.

There are days when I hate my characters.

Philip Mann – Oddball Jewish Paranormalism

Did you know orthodox jews are from the Galileo Quadrant? Some of them, anyway…

Philip MannHello all and welcome to our continuing series of author interviews.

Today’s guest is Montreal native Philip Mann, author of the Dark MUSE Jewish Paranormal series. This is a special treat because, if you’re like me, you don’t know much about judaism or how that belief’s concept of the paranormal differs from other orthodoxies. Prepare to be educated. I’d like everyone to stand up and give Philip Mann a big round of applause for taking part in our exciting adventure.

In many presentations in the popular media, jewish life is caricatured, or watered down.

 
Philip’s Bio
Philip told me he was born in the Galileo quadrant, north-northeast sector of the Andromeda strain, and that he’s always had a vivid imagination, but only focussed it in 2010, more or less. His wife puts up with his ramblings knowing that it keeps him from serious, possibly certifiable acts.

Beyond that, nobody’s saying anything.
