The Mindrulers is a series of Christian fantasy / science fiction novels in which four ordinary people from this world are called by God to rescue the citizens of a small nation on a distant planet from the unimaginable oppression of mind-control.

​

The stories developed out of a fantasy role-playing game my wife and I enjoyed with our son and daughter during their teens. My wife and daughter both suffered from chronic fatigue, so we couldn’t easily get out for family outings. Instead, on Sunday afternoons we would all sit round the dining room table and play “the Family Game”, as we called it.

The game had a Christian worldview, and I would set up quests for the rest of the family to pursue within the growing fantasy world we were creating. I kept a diary of our sessions, and when eventually we had to stop due to our teenagers’ increasing school commitments, the story had given us all so much pleasure that we thought, We can’t let this go to waste! Why not share it with others?

Hence the books—which have now gone way beyond the family game, but that’s where they had their origin. All along it’s been very much a family project, with my wife and children (now adults) helping with ideas, proofreading, artwork and promotion.​

We hope you enjoy the stories as much as we have!
