Zero to Hero

by James Ward

Overview

Leo, a teenager is having a hard time dealing with family upheaval and bullying at school. Sci-Fi is his escape from a world he thinks hates him. However, he finds his imaginary Sci-Fi world morphs into reality. As a result, Leo and his friend Dani discover it's no longer a game and they are not in control. They find something amazing - something of high strangeness that can change the future. This changes the relationships with family and friends. If you were Leo could you handle the responsibility and keep such a secret? If not, whom would you tell? Could you betray someone to save a loved one? Could you put your trust in a group of strangers to help you? These are some of the issues faced by teenagers Leo and his girlfriend Dani as Leo goes from being a zero to a hero.

About the Author

I write under the alter ego, James Ward. My real name is Trevor James Ward and I was born in Perth, Western Australia in 1954. I have always had an infinity with the written word and having fun with words.

As I have gotten older I developed a strong interest in Metaphysics and Alternative Sciences and have published articles in an Aust/NZ esoteric magazine called New Dawn and Uncensored News. Those articles can be read freely on my website: https://jameswardpublishing.com/published-articles/.

Therefore with the above background, it was a natural progression to write a science fiction novel and hence Zero to Hero is my 'firstborn' effort.
