Kenneth Winfield Moak was born in New Hampshire on March 9th, 1950. Although his family maintained a home in the state, the brunt of his childhood would be spent in Charlotte, NC, the main family home.

Kenneth Moak attended Myers Park high school, an upper-class school in Charlotte where he met a great number of his future associates. Upon graduating, Kenneth attended UNH for a brief time before dropping out to pursue his writing career more diligently. Having begun writing at an early age with unpublished novels, his first and only piece of published fiction was in Galaxy Magazine, entitled "A Snatch In Time." Mr. Moak would continue to write a variety of science fiction novels, none of which have been published as of 2008. Kenneth Moak's nonfiction work has seen more success, though. A frequent contributor to INFO paranormal journal, Mr. Moak is considered something of an expert on ancient societies and technology by his peers. Although younger than the major paranormal researchers--John Keel, Ivan Sanderson, and a number of others--he has been in contact with the entire group and remains a close acquaintance of many of the prominent INFO researchers. Currently, Mr. Moak's internet course on the ancient technology of Atlantis can be found available on psychicschoolhouse.com. He resides in New Hampshire with his family and a small farm. Mr. Moak encourages his fans and supporters to contact him at hlurltn@yahoo.com

The Undertakers, mysterious and horrifying creatures from another reality, are returning with their minions, the Pervert Elves, and they will stop at nothing to regain an ancient device that they have searched for for years. The novel is written in two time periods, one in the present day and the other leading up to the events that scarred Adam for years to come--the Sweetmountain disaster.

A Darkness of Design Science Fiction, unfinished. Following the events of "A Season of Shadows," Adam has been reunited with his love, Liss. They have lived and matured together in the alternate world called "B" earth.

Winter's End Science Fiction, 2006. In the ancient times, before civilization collapsed, the world began to witness the signs of their impending doom. As the earth hurries towards doomsday, the great minds try desperately to avert catastrophe.

By Fate Foredoomed Science Fiction, 2006. In the sequel to "Winter's End," the great catatrophic events begun in the first novel come to a head, ending the sophisticated culture that had thrived in the ancient times.

To Be Among That Number Science Fiction, in editing. On the eve of doomsday, a divine slip-up results in the dead returning to life, and searching for something in their world.

Conjugation Science Fiction, 2007. Humanity has begun contact with new races from the stars, and yet the greatest conflict may lie in the first cross-species romance between a man and a Flioorian.
