Daniel Hird For sixteen years the Earth has baked and no girls have been born. Karen's the last girl and Steven's her gay twin. Dad turns their home into a fortress as women take the chance to rule the world. Their eyes are on Steven. Perhaps, with a little medical interference, he could be the saviour of the world. 'Steven is a brilliant narrator with a thrilling tale to tell. His language sculpts this reality in a striking, penetrating way, often combining beautiful observations with cutting colloquial realism.' - Barbara Melville, Interzone Ectopia takes themes of gender, feminism, climate change, cloning, psychedelics, racism, and genetic modification and mixes them into a 21st Century Brave New World 'Ectopia is a thought provoking read that isn't afraid to take risks, which gives it a leg up in the crowded dystopian marketplace.' - Litreactor 'Ectopia is a terrific novel with excellent characterisation, world-building, narration and dialogue. It's also thematically strong, exploring the connections between binary concepts, including male versus female, gay versus straight, and soulful versus soulless. The result is a story of great depth, raising questions about who we are and how we define ourselves.' - Interzone Bios Author Born in Leicester, Martin Goodman's career in writing, teaching, acting and publishing has taken him around the globe. 'All we can do is rattle the bars and look after him as he runs into the hills. We wait for his letters home.' - The Los Angeles Times. He's published eleven books, some award-winning and most not. He is Emeritus Professor of Creative Writing at the University of Hull. Narrators Daniel Hird is a Scottish actor and theatre-maker who trained at Manchester School of Theatre. On Stage he has appeared in his own one-man show OLD BONES (Jen McGregor), as well as HEAVEN BURNS (Jen McGregor and Flavia D'Avila), VOLANTE (Jen McGregor), and #SONS OF GOD: A COMPACT CORIOLANUS (William Shakespeare: adapted by Jen McGregor). For Manchester School of theatre, he has appeared in ON THE SHORE OF THE WIDE WORLD (Simon Stephens), VINEGAR TOM (Caryl Churchill), BABIES (Jonathan Harvey), and IMAGE OF AN UNKNOWN YOUNG WOMAN (Elinor Cook). On Screen Daniel has appeared in BOB SERVANT (Neil Forsyth), and has provided voices for numerous BBC Documentaries. Daniel was also a finalist at the 2021 Carlton Hobbs Award. Emma Tierney has a BA (hons) in Acting from the University of Central Lancashire, and is represented by Urban Talent. Emma has been lucky enough to work with companies such as the BBC, Red Production Company and AbbottVision over the last few years. Ectopia is her first audiobook and she's thrilled to have been cast as the voice of Karen. Daniel Hird For sixteen years the Earth has baked and no girls have been born.
