Ralph Kern

Ralph Kern is the author of nine novels, and numerous short stories. From hard science fiction, to military, to mystery thrillers with a twist. By day (and night), he is a frontline police officer with over fifteen years of experience which gives his writing and characters an authentic feel. To add to his science fiction, he draws on his degree in aerospace engineering, and work placements with the ESA. He has served in both the British army reserves as an officer cadet, and the RAF as a civilian instructor, giving air experience flights to cadets in motor gliders. He is a crazy cat guy, and is the indentured servant of two exotic shorthairs. He loves running and keep fit, as well as seeing the world.
