The Hero's Companion

 

By Timothy Ellis

 

 

Copyright © 2015, 2016 by Timothy Ellis

 

Cover by Kalen O'Donnell.

 

This book is a work of fiction. The names,
characters, places and events are fictional and have no relationship to any
real person, place or event. Any resemblance to persons, living or dead, is
purely co-incidental.

The author has taken the liberty of using
some recognizable names in a historical context or projected into the future as
if such entities survive into the timeframe of this work of fiction. Such
references are intended solely as a tribute to the entity so used and all such
usage has an intended deep respect. The author has also deliberately chosen
names for characters in tribute to the science fiction genre in all forms of
media. Some may be obvious, others will not be. There is no implied connection,
other than what the reader may make for themselves.

The author is Australian and the main
characters in this book are of Australian origin. In Australia, we colour things
slightly differently, so you may notice some of the spelling is different.
Please do not be alarmed. If you do suffer any discomfort, please take it out
on the nearest pirate.

All Rights Reserved. No part of this book
may be reproduced, scanned, or distributed in any manner whatsoever without the
written permission from the author except in the case of brief quotation
embodied in critical articles or reviews.
