Christian Beck saw Doctor Zhivago and Lawrence of Arabia when he was a wee boy on a giant white drive-in screen amid the dusty Iowan cornfields in Super Panavision 70, shaping his idea of what storytelling was. It stuck. Seldom does he write anything less than sweeping, epic adventures that pit his characters against some instrument or agent of death, pushing them beyond their every limit to survive. Simply put: Cinema put in words. He does that on a Surface Pro tablet sitting somewhere in the desert with his family — far, far away from the cornfields of the American Heartland.
Looking forward to your release of The Last Enemy in July. I’d be interested in how many stories your plan for the series?

Hey there mtsnow13. I’m so glad you reached out to me. Right now, I’m thinking about the arc of this story so I can’t answer that at the moment. It’s open-ended at this point.
