About the Book

Welcome to Petra.

It is the ultimate prison. Inmates from all of Ported Space are dumped there, forgotten, and left to survive however they can. Hope dies. Escape is impossible.

Disillusioned war hero Kane Pythen comes to Petra on a fact-finding mission, but gets caught in an uprising that threatens to expose a shattering secret. And Rolf Ankledge, Petra's ruthless warden, will stop at nothing to keep it from reaching Ported Space. If Kane involves himself, he risks losing everything he has. If he does nothing, he betrays the last shreds of his ideals.

The prison break of the millennium is on. Now Kane must race against time and vicious forces from all over Petra if he ever wants to see his wife and daughter again.

Petra is the first book in The Prison World Revolt series.
About the Author: Matt wrote his first story--"The Elephant and the Cheese"--when he was eight years old. It was the first time he had ever filled an entire page with writing. To his young mind, that seemed like a major accomplishment. It occurred to him shortly thereafter that writing stories was what he wanted to do with his life. Matt gravitated to science fiction, fantasy, and horror at an early age, too. He discovered Ray Bradbury's "The Fog Horn" in a grade school reader, and read it over and over whenever he got bored in class. (Needless to say, he read it a lot.) Other classics soon followed--DUNE and LORD OF THE RINGS and FOUNDATION, the usual suspects. As a boy, he often pretended his bicycle was Shadowfax, and that he was Gandalf, riding like mad for Minas Tirith. Yeah, he was that kind of kid. Half the time, his family and friends didn't know what the hell he was talking about. Matt's story "Alan Smithee Lives in Hell" placed second in the 1997 Science Fiction Writers of Earth Contest. In 1998, he attended Odyssey. The workshop led directly to his first sale--"Black Boxes," in ABSOLUTE MAGNITUDE. In 2002, Matt won a Phobos Award for "Hitting the Skids in Pixeltown." He was a 2008 winner in the Writers of the Future Contest. He has since continued to publish in various magazines. Matt lives in Nebraska. He has husked corn only once in his life, and has never been detasseling, so he insists he is not a hick.
