Stuart Clark was born in England in the sleepy little town of Ashford, Middlesex. To those not intimate with British geography, that can more simply be described as Greater London.
Science, particularly Biology, always interested Stuart and after school, he went on to Bristol University where he graduated with a BSc in Microbiology.
He worked for two years as a technical author for a large scientific publishing company before deciding that he really wanted to go back to University and do a Masters degree in Science Communication, which he completed at Imperial College, London.
After years of intermittent study and work, Stuart decided to take a sabbatical and spent almost two years experiencing the sights and sounds of Australasia and South-East Asia. He spent a year of that time living and working in Sydney, Australia.
When he’s not working or writing, Stuart spends his time scuba diving and attempting to play golf.
Stuart emigrated to the United States in 2005 and now lives with his wife and daughter in New York.

Project U.L.F.
Project U.L.F is a Science Fiction drama played out on an inhospitable planet millions of miles from Earth. It is a story of betrayal and one man’s struggle to unite an unlikely band of characters and ensure their safe return home.
Wyatt Dorren is an ex-con. Imprisoned for a crime of passion, Wyatt has managed to turn his life around thanks to the state prison rehabilitation programme. Initially placed at Chicago’s Interplanetary Zoological Park (IZP), Wyatt was employed as a trapper, travelling to known star systems to capture alien life forms for exhibition at the zoo. Today, he has reached the levels of middle management and heads Project ULF (Unidentified Life Form), a department of highly skilled personnel who travel to newly discovered planets to capture new and previously unknown forms of life.
Wyatt’s unexpected success poses a threat to Douglas Mannheim, a conniving, underhanded man who has blackmailed his way to the position of Managing Director of the IZP. Mannheim recognises the danger that Wyatt represents and, based on information supplied to him, plots to send Wyatt and a rag-tag team of trappers on a bogus mission to a remote, uncharted planet from which he knows no-one has returned, thereby eliminating his latest challenger.
Unknown to Mannheim, a University graduate, Kate Frere, is assigned to Wyatt’s crew, since on paper the expedition has been arranged to look like a routine assignment.
Both Wyatt and Kate are blissfully ignorant of their predicament but because they have different expectations from the expedition they rarely see eye-to-eye. It is this conflict and Kate’s naiveté that will ultimately expose the awful truth of what has befallen them.
Now, with a stricken ship, faulty equipment, inexperienced crew members and a rogue element to deal with, Wyatt must unite his team of men and women and find a way to get back home.
There is of course one other problem. They are no longer the hunters but the hunted.
