About the Author
Hi, I'm John Newton. I was born in 1952. Amateur folk singer and guitarist, I worked thirty something years in the printing industry, took a couple of years off, to go live on a narrowboat, ran out of money, then spent ten years working in social care. I retired in 2015. Ten years later, at the age of 72, I've decided that I want to be a Science fiction author.
Go figure.

The Portal Wars
Part I
Simulation
The Portal Wars is a gripping science fiction series about survival, deception, and the fight against an enemy who doesn’t just conquer worlds—they rewrite them.
In Book One: Simulation, Samantha, a former soldier, wakes to find humanity replaced by grey, shifting creatures and a barrier that traps her inside a dying town. With the help of unlikely allies, she uncovers the horrifying truth: Earth is gone, and she’s trapped inside an Overlord construct. The only way out is through the portal.
