Who is David Simpson?

David Simpson is the author of the sci-fi novel Post-Human, his 2009 debut, and Trans-Human, the sequel. He is also the author of The God Killers, his first sci-fi/horror novel.

David has recently taken the unusual step of re-publishing his books as Kindle ebooks so that he could offer them at extremely low prices, eliminating the overpricing caused by having a traditional publisher. He believes that this is a necessary and positive transition, as the technology that has dictated the practices of the publishing industry – paper books are rapidly being replaced by ebooks.

Post-Human is available for free on his website. (To get a free copy click here)

Trans-Human and The God Killers are available from Amazon.com for only 99 cents each.

David has a Master’s degree in English Literature from the University of British Columbia and is the winner of over a dozen awards and scholarships, both as a student and as a teacher at the university level.

He lives with his wife, Jennifer, in West Vancouver British Columbia.
