Francisco Angulo
Madrid, 1976
Enthusiast of fantasy cinema and literature and a lifelong fan of Isaac Asimov and Stephen King, Angulo starts his literary career by submitting short stories to different contests. At 17 he finishes his first book - a collection of poems – and tries to publish it. Far from feeling intimidated by the discouraging responses from publishers, he decides to push ahead and tries even harder.
In 2006 he published his first novel "The Relic", a science fiction tale that was received with very positive reviews. In 2008 he presented "Ecofa" an essay on biofuels, whereAngulorecounts his experiences in the research project he works on. In 2009 he published "Kira and the Ice Storm".A difficultbut very productive year, in2010 he completed "Eco-fuel-FA",a science book in English. He also worked on several literary projects: "The Best of 2009-2010", "The Legend of Tarazashi 2009-2010", "The Sniffer 2010", "Destination Havana 2010-2011" and "Company No.12".
He currently works as director of research at the Ecofa project. Angulo is the developer of the first 2nd generation biofuel obtained from organic waste fed bacteria. He specialises in environmental issues and science-fiction novels.
His expertise in the scientific field is reflected in the innovations and technological advances he talks about in his books, almost prophesying what lies ahead, as Jules Verne didin his time.
Francisco Angulo
Madrid-1976
Gran aficionado al cine y a la literatura fantástica, seguidor de Asimov y de Stephen King, Comienza su andadura literaria presentando relatos cortos a diferentes certámenes. A los 17 años termina su primer libro, un poemario que intenta publicar sin éxito. Lejos de amedrentarse ante las respuestas desalentadoras de las editoriales, decide seguir adelante, trabajando con más ahínco.
Die son was besig om oor Madrid te sak en het die lug 'n intens oranje verander wat in die vensters van die wolkekrabbers weerspieël is, asof die hele stad aan die brand was. In 'n klein, deurmekaar woonstel in die hartjie van Lavapiés het Daniel Sánchez voor 'n warboel kabels en flikkerende skerms gesit, sy bloedbelope oë gevestig op eindelose reëls kode. Die konstante gebrom van rekenaaraanhangers was soos 'n verwronge wiegelied, die enigste klank in 'n ruimte wat na ou koffie en verlepte drome geruik het. Daniël, met sy onversorgde swart hare en 'n paar dae se baard, het meer soos 'n wegbreekman gelyk as die briljante programmeerder wat hy eens was. —"Daar moet 'n manier wees," prewel hy vir homself, sy vingers vlieg met woes dringendheid oor die sleutelbord. 'n Uitweg uit hierdie gat. Sy blik dryf vir 'n oomblik na die hoop onoopgemaakte briewe in die hoek van sy lessenaar. Wetsontwerpe, uitsettingskennisgewings, dreigemente van krediteure. Elke koevert was 'n prikkelende herinnering aan hoe hy tot hierdie punt gekom het. Daniël maak sy oë toe en gun homself 'n oomblik van swakheid. Hy onthou die opgewondenheid, die adrenalien van daardie nie-so-verre dae toe die wêreld van kripto-geldeenhede soos die beloofde land gelyk het. Hy het alles belê: sy spaargeld, lenings, selfs geld wat by vriende en familie geleen is. En toe, in 'n oogwink, was alles weg.
