Prelude to Ascension is now available in audiobook format. We started the production process back in September 2018, and like virtually everything else related to writing and publishing books, it was a bigger job than expected - but fun.

I'm very pleased with the way the audiobook turned out. It was narrated by Samuel Peery. We entertained many auditioners - virtually all of them good - before settling on Sam. Now that the book is out there, I'm more convinced than ever that we made the right choice. He was great to work with and delivered a quality product.

I've always been a reader. I love printed books, including eBooks, but in recent years I've become a fan of audio. Among its many benefits, the primary one for me is that I tend to get eye fatigue when reading printed materials these days - especially for extended periods. Obviously, that's a non-issue with audio. My hope is that being available in audio format will make the book a little more accessible to people like me who aren't always up to reading a 560-page novel through a set of progressive lenses.

The audio version is available via the following channels:
Many thanks to everyone who has reached out to share feedback and appreciation for the book. My hope is that anyone who gives the book a try enjoys it. That was, and still is my simple reason for writing.

Very best,

2) Dark Matter: From the Beginning

The paradox of Dark Matter leads unavoidably to a few questions. The first and most obvious has to do with galaxy structure. How can galaxies behave as though they contain 70% more mass than they appear to have? What keeps them from simply flying apart? But these questions quickly lead to the even more intriguing question of how they ever formed at all. Understanding the riddle of Dark Matter requires rewinding the clock all the way back to the Big Bang. Like so many other questions in physics, it can seem odd that two seemingly disconnected topics can end up having such direct bearing on one another. But in the end, unexpected connections like this often end up being a good thing; they are signals, hints that we may have tapped into a fundamental aspect of the Universe that once understood, could help resolve other mysteries as well. First, what of galaxy structure and rotation? Here the problem is that we cannot detect enough matter to account for the gravity that we know  mu...
