ⓘ About Rod Duncan

Rod Duncan is a British author that writes science fiction novels. +Biography Rod Duncan was born in 1962 in Wales. He spent most of his childhood in Aberystwyth. The author struggled with reading and writing as a child, so publishing was the last career anyone who knew him would have expected Rod to pursue. The author initially set his sights on Mining Geology which is what he studied at the University of Leicester. He got his BSc and it must have given him quite the taste for Geology because he chose to return to Leicester with the intention of pursuing that particular subject along with Satellite Imagery for his Ph.D.
