About the Author

Ray C Doyle is an author with a remarkable career spanning thirty years. His writing journey has led to the creation of fifteen captivating books, including a poignant biography and a current project on Young Adult Time Travel.

Science Fiction is one genre Ray has never engaged in yet one he has enjoyed reading. At an early age he remembers listening to 'Journey to the Moon' on Sunday afternoons on the BBC and the early 'Quatermas' stories. Despite enjoying all the classic books like 'War of the Worlds', 'Fahrenheit 451', and 'Dune', his latest book - 'TIMEBREAK' is his first attempt at writing Sci-Fi, a project that has projected this multi-genre author in a new direction. He boasts he is a 'Trekki' after years of avid support for Star Trek and Dr Who.

TIMEBREAK has been written with a message to the younger teen readership. Ray sees the world, and in particularly, London, as it will be in 200 odd years time.

Quote - 'I want modern youth to visualise the future broken world for their descendants unless they maintain a strong and loud voice for change in the way we look after our envirionment. The world is a beautiful place and we must make sure we all take responsibility to keep it that way.

Ray's unique selling point lies in his diverse writing portfolio, which encompasses the art of poetry and the intricacies of storytelling. His passion for literature and dedication to the craft have earned him recognition, including a prestigious win in an international poetry competition.

As a writer, Ray aims to connect with readers on a profound level, taking them on a transformative literary journey through his words.

Ray is a versatile, with a rich tapestry of creative experiences. Winning a writing competition at eleven sparked his passion for the arts, which blossomed during his teens.

Balancing his literary pursuits with music, he collaborated on blues recordings before dedicating himself to writing full-time. Today,

Ray's hard-hitting thriller stories that have filled his later life so far resonate with the truth that lies beneath daily headlines. Political corruption and industrial espionage are rife today. Ray's exceptional talent with words takes these headlines and upgrades them into a fiction of the highest quality.

His main character in his political thriller series, Pete West, lies somewhere between the noir world of Chandler’s Philip Marlowe and the enforced moral principles in a corrupt political world found in Lee Child’s Jack Reacher series.

These classic tropes come together to produce a new and exciting character-driven quad of hard-boiled, noir novels in the world of Pete West.

Ray continues to create, weaving his diverse experiences into his work. A new direction into Science-Fiction has reignited his unique ability to create engaging and exciting new stories and colourful and memorable characters.
