about me

My name is David and I hail from Wexford, Ireland. I'm new to the scene and trying to learn the trade and maybe get noticed. But regardless of the outcome, I enjoy creating my own characters and worlds, its something that I enjoy very much. I'm hoping to learn from other works and learn from comments on my own work. Any comments are appreciated, thanks for your time in advance.

The Silent Saga Book 1: Desolate is currently undergoing some reconstruction and editing but the essence of the story is preserved. If a publisher or agent swings by well by all means feel free to message me or e-mail me at dvdwhelan7 (at) gmail (dot )com for more info.

The Vampire Apocalpyse Trilogy by Derek Gunn
I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore

But I love all science-fiction and also reading about UFO's and space, it fascinates me.

The Silent Saga Book 1: Desola....

David Whelan

Hope was dashed on the final hour, now six years later; has the last hope arrived or are things just about to get worse?


Mandrania was to be a place to create peace between four warring races but just as negotiations were beginning to progress, the galaxy was silenced. No communication to any off world base, ship or planet could be initiated and it all happened at the same time.

Everybody pointed the finger and war between the four colonies broke out. Now six years later, with the death toll reducing the colonies to hundreds, a ship crashes on the mountain. Teams are despatched to find out who it is and to learn what happened, what caused the silence? More importantly, is anyone alive in the galaxy or are they alone?

But the planet has secrets of its own, and some people thought lost or dead are mysteriously alive and have far greater knowledge about the planets past and the silence. They to, want to get to the ship, but for a different reason.

Firstly, I want to echo a comment made below about the detail relating to a historic period. Its a great skill to be able to write about a previous timeline with just vision and this text seems really well constructed, as though it was historically acurate. This is a great skill.

Very interesting pitch and the idea has great potential from the offset. Its also written with an easy read in mind as it goes along at a good pace which is important. Its definitely a story that could be tranaferred to film as well. Regards David Whelan The Silent Saga view book

This is a well written peice of sci-fi. Its well organised and descriptive enough to allow a good flow to the story without bogging it down. Fair play to ya. Regards David Whelan The Silent Saga view book

This is a great example of a cross-genre novel. The elements of fantasy and sci-fi are interwoven well and it works. The pitch was alluring and for the idea alone I have backed it. Your writing is good as well and I think you could be on to a winner here. Regards David Whelan The Silent Saga Bo... view book
