Luis became a sci-fi fan as a child after watching Lost in Space and Star Trek the original series. INVASION FROM EARTH! is Luis' first published novel. He was inspired to write it after reading about the late American Canadian palaeontologist, Dr. Dale Russell's thought experiment on the evolution of a dinosaur species into an intelligent life form if the asteroid had never collided with earth. Luis' favourite sci-fi novel is War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells. A banker by profession, Luis lives in Winnipeg with his family and his Maltese dog, Sonny.
