Join us as we dive into the fascinating life of Dave Freer, a South African-born author whose journey spans from serving as a medic on the Angolan border to becoming an award-winning science fiction writer. Dave’s story is one of resilience, adventure, and creativity—fueled by his experiences as an ichthyologist, commercial diver, and passionate rock-climber. Learn how he broke through years of rejection to publish his first novel, The Forlorn, and went on to win accolades like the Prometheus Award for Cloud-Castles and the Preditors & Editors Readers Poll for Slow Train to Arcturus. Now living on Flinders Island, Tasmania, Dave continues to captivate readers with his imaginative worlds.
