Paul E. Hardisty

Canadian by birth, Paul has spent 25 years working all over the world as an engineer, hydrologist and environmental scientist. He has rough-necked on oil rigs in Texas, explored for gold in the Arctic, and rehabilitated village water wells in the wilds of Africa. He survived a bomb blast in a café in Sana'a in 1993 and was one of the last westerners out of Yemen before the outbreak of the 1994 civil war.

The Abrupt Physics of Dying, his first novel, received great critical acclaim, and was short-listed for the CWA Creasy New Blood Dagger award. The Evolution of Fear, his second novel, was released in March 2016. The third in the Claymore Striker series, Reconciliation for the Dead was published in e-book in March 2017 and in paperback in May 2017.

​Paul is a university professor and Director of Australia's national water, land and ecosystems research program. He is a pilot, a sailor, a keen outdoorsman, and conservation volunteer. Paul lives in Western Australia.
