Michael Ball is an Australian author with a past as intriguing as his books. Through 11 years as a military intelligence analyst and his current role at Disaster Relief Australia, Michael has encountered an incredible range of people with extraordinary experiences. These encounters fuel his writing, which delves into the gritty realities of hidden worlds, the tough decisions made by the few for the good of the many, and the power of resilience and determination over intellect or skill.Through his stories, Michael explores themes of resilience and agency, always reminding readers, "It is never too dark to dream, nor too late to step foot on your own path."
