ALL ABOUT JACK WEAR
J.H. (Jack) Wear lives in Edmonton, Alberta with his wife, Lorrie. They have three sons and two grandsons. Logic notwithstanding, Lorrie blames Jack for the lack of females in the family.
Jack took up writing later than most authors. After finishing a career with Xerox, he soon felt bored and started selling beverages as a liquor agent. Over several glasses of Sauvignon Blanc, he wrote his first novel, submitted it and suddenly became a published author. This astonished everyone, especially every English teacher he had in school.
He continued with writing, adding a trilogy, along with several short stories. Most of his writing is in the fantasy and science fiction genres, although his latest novel is a murder mystery.
His current projects are a science fiction novel, a murder mystery, and trying to convince his sons their mother needs a granddaughter.

Stone and Roberts enter the world of wine festivals to determine the motive for poisoning
Detrick and even if he was the intended victim. And was the missing bag of garbage
holding the clues they needed?

Darius.
A HOLE IN THE UNIVERSE
Humans are finally leaving the safe confines of Earth. Terraforming has allowed Mars to become a second home for people. The red planet is turning green, allowing greater exploration of Mars to take place. And one discovery leads to speculation humans weren’t the first to arrive on Mars.
Jaret McLeod was used to danger and thinking under pressure, either as a miner in the asteroids, or later as a captain of a spaceship. He was aware of Unidentified Space Objects (USOs) that appeared to break the speed of light, the new discoveries on Mars, and of a recent discovery Meili, a new planet orbiting beyond Pluto.
None of these events appeared to be related, but it turns out anything is possible, as McLeod was about to find out.
Testimonials
“
A crisp, clear story written in a knowledgeable, humourous, and entertaining style. This story brings intrigue into the world of wine and alcoholic beverage sales, with just a hint of spice. The level of detail made it so real, right down to the flavor of the wine. I couldn’t put it down.

“This murder mystery was set in two of my favourite places. My hometown (or at least only 5 minutes away), and at a wine tasting festival. I enjoyed the read and found the plot to be plausible. I did figure out “who did it”, but it wasn’t so early in that it mattered. I also learned quite a bit of information about the festival, and some of the tricks of the trade where liquor stores and agents are concerned.
I found the author spent more time describing his driving routes than what I thought was necessary, but he did point out some restaurants and pubs that I may end up checking out, both downtown and in the High Street areas.
Overall it is a quick read that I would recommend if you enjoy murder mysteries.”
“I was definitely not ready to learn theoretical physics while reading this book. Luckily the author made sure I didn’t have to. This is definitely a hard science fiction book, which in fact made it that much better in my honest opinion. I don’t think it would have been as good had they skipped over a lot of how things work in space.
I found myself on the edge of my seat towards the last half of the book and found the build-up to the conclusion is well worth the slow start. The characters’ backgrounds definitely had an impact on how that all ended, I also enjoyed the ending. I dare not spoil anything for any potential readers, I will just say give it a chance and you won’t be disappointed.
