Aneksaria

The story follows the actions of people defending themselves against a race of intelligent machines. It is set in an semi-arctic environment that makes life difficult. The machines, the aimu (artificial intelligent machine units) and the Frame, an artificial intelligent machine. Due to the difficult environment the machines use a ruling elite called the Divines.

For a thousand years, the Frame and its machine empire had ruled the people of Inalsol. A small group of Muckers struggled for survival in a semi arctic mountainous district known as Garvamore. In other places the Divines, a dehumanised elite, treat Muckers as slaves. Only in Garvamore can Muckers have any semblance of freedom. A small group fight for the survival and future of the human race of Inalsol, building their strength in secret until discovered by the Frame. The Frame will destroy them and all hope for the people unless they defeat the technologically superior Frame in battle against all odds.

The idea for the Aneksaria series of novels was inspired by his trips to the Scottish Highlands. The books are about the struggles of the Aneksa, the free-people who live in the Islands of Garvamore. The Aneksa are referred to more commonly as 'Muckers', a derogatory term used by Divines. These are a group of rugged, mountainous islands in the semi-arctic north (natua) of the world of Inalsol. Inalsol is run by the Frame, a super, artificial intelligent computer. The environment of Garvamore makes it difficult for machines to work and so, the Frame uses a 'superior' caste of people known as 'Divines'. The first book 'The Mucker Revolt' introduces the reader to the characters, society and environment the story is set in. The main story-line involves Cullin, the youngest son of Lord Ossin and the events leading to the 'Battle of Dundoon'. 'Search For The Interface' continues the story and sets Cullin on a dangerous sea journey to find the Interface and destroy it. The story also covers Yayler's journey to elicit from Divines and culminates in the Battle of Rustick More.
