How do you make sense of a world that seems impossible?

For Ernst Bohdrum, the answer is simple: stories - to be precise, the stories of the Ancients. Their technology was so advanced, so unfathomable, how could their stories not be true as well?

Captain 'Stank' Dobrovsk is less convinced. He believes in a process; a careful, rigorous process almost lost to time, known only to himself and the other members of Great Burn's Protectorate.

When their investigation on an uncharted island leads to catastrophe, they must struggle with their own and each others' beliefs to make sense of everything they found - extraordinary islanders; enemy agents; incredible machines; and long-hidden secrets - not just to find the truth, but to decide what they should do with it.

Set on a future Earth, with emerging civilisations thrown into disorder by the technologies we left behind - including a few we haven't yet invented - Struggle To Make Sense Of It All is a retrofuturistic mystery that explores the tools we use to make sense of our world, particularly through scientific enquiry and storytelling.

Autoren-Porträt von Gareth M Long

Gareth M Long has been writing stories since he was a small child. Raised in a little village near Cambridge, England, he spent much of his youth walking and cycling around the beautiful (if flat) countryside, and grew to love the sense of being lost in nature. Sadly, this love was somewhat frustrated by his GCSE science courses, which seemed to focus more on abstracted learning than on fundamental theories, application of ideas or rigorous explanations.

Having graduated from the University of Manchester with a BA (Hons) Drama, he returned to Cambridge where he has lived ever since (albeit with a few months in London and a couple of years in Colchester), trying to eke out a living whilst practising and honing his writing. After reading Dawkins' magnificently written The Selfish Gene, he also rediscovered his love of science and became what some people might call an 'armchair' scientist (though he can't remember ever owning an armchair).

While studying for his MA Creative Writing, he hit upon the idea of Stank and Bohdrum as a way of exploring scientific thought through his own - largely self-educated - grasp of the field. It also seemed a lot more fun than the rather over-earnest eco-drama he'd spent years trying to complete.
