Yellowcake Springs

My second novel, Yellowcake Springs, is a work of speculative fiction. Set in Western Australia in the year 2058, it offers a dark vision of a future world that is might be closer than we think. Most of the action takes place in the fictional town of Yellowcake Springs, a ‘Nuclear Green’ community that is owned and operated by Chinese consortium CIQ Sinocorp. There are three main characters: Sylvia Baron, a bored thirty-something who has recently moved to town with her famous husband; Rion, a vagrant from the badlands town of East Hills; and Jiang Wei, a Chinese man taking up a new job with CIQ Sinocorp.

Yellowcake Springs is currently unfinished. I have set myself a deadline for completing the novel of May 2010. My aim is to enter the novel into the 2010 Australian/Vogel Award.
