Luke J. Kendall failed to drown on five separate occasions on Sydney's northern beaches. For 30 years he worked in the IT R&D field, very happily married to an adventurous mediaeval scholar 22 years his senior, until her death in December 2014.
He likes really long form fiction – like Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, or C. E. Murphy's urban shaman series. His own, The Leeth Dossier, is set in our world in a 'mixtopian' near future a few decades after magic's return. Character-driven by its female lead – who is innocent, loyal, and deadly – it blends hard science with fantasy, psychological horror, humour, and action. He has self-published Wild Thing (2015), Harsh Lessons (2016), Shadow Hunt (2017), and Violent Causes (2019), and Lost Girl (Dec, 2020), book 1 in the new series arc.

The Leeth Dossier
|
(A warning from the author:
As with the 1st book, there are a few very dark passages here: parts where I cried as I wrote them, and still cry when I read them – though sometimes, they're tears of joy. I should add, though, I find myself chuckling quite often, too: I believe there are more light moments than dark.)
Raised at the Institute for Paranormal Dysfunction to test Dr Alex Harmon's theories, Leeth's magic took everyone by surprise. And now, she and her abusive guardian have been taken by a covert government agency where Leeth is training to become their assassin.
But Leeth is both more dangerous than they know, and too innocent for her own good. Sent 'back' to school to learn some much-needed social skills – under strict instructions not to kill – Leeth is singularly ill-equipped to deal with the challenges of a normal life.
She wants to belong, but has little idea how to fit in – let alone how mean girls can be.
Nor does she know that an uncanny and ruthless killer, the product of a madman's insane magic, hunts her.
Leeth has some harsh lessons to learn.
She'd better learn fast.
