At 58, Marc brings a lifetime of experiences to his debut novel, inspired by his passion for science fiction that explores human resilience and complex societies, much like Babylon 5 and Firefly, which he admires over Star Trek or Star Wars for their nuanced characters and moral ambiguity. Living in Auburndale, Florida, Marc is an avid SpaceX enthusiast, frequently traveling to Port Canaveral to witness launches, fueling his fascination with humanity’s cosmic ambitions. As a previously unpublished author, Marc has poured his insights into Scourge of the Rift to share a story of hope and overcoming overwhelming odds.
