About the Author

Colin Duffy has loved books for as long as he can remember. One of his first favorite books as a child was an abridged children's version of "War of the Worlds" by H.G. Wells. He was fascinated by the concept of an alien invasion of Earth and its consequences on mankind and society. This fascination followed him into adulthood and led him to write the novella "The Final Conflict", his own take on the alien invasion genre. A labor of love that took four years to write, It will be his first published piece. Colin graduated from the University of Maryland at Baltimore County in 2003 with a double major in psychology and history. He is a voracious reader of military history, which helped him to shape his ideas for "The Final Conflict." He works as a cataloger at the Georgetown University Law School library, an ideal job for a quiet book lover. He lives in Silver Spring, Md., with his wife and their moody but loving pet rabbit.
