Former Van Der Graaf Generator and String Driven Thing band member Graham Smith has released a Science Fiction novel entitled The Vision Of Omigali. The story draws on Graham's rich experience of music and mysticism as a means to inspire young people

2012-11-04
BRISTOL, ENGLAND, November 04, 2012 (Press-News.org) The book is the first novel in the Salvation Series, and features a group of vibrant young people from an innocent future society in a race against the clock to save their beloved friend and mystic Omigali, struck down by dark influences emanating from a distant galaxy and infecting humanity.

Graham was most famous for his role in the band Van Der Graaf Generator in the 1960's and '70s, whose hits include Theme One and Killer. In a recent interview, Graham describes how writing had always been an important part of his life: "I'd always wanted to write novels and then one day I just made the start". He went on to describe his novel as "Full of action, intrigue and humour; hi-tech and sexy with a touch of dark fantasy and flavoured uniquely with a spiritual dimension... It goes seriously intergalactic!"

As part of a special promotion in partnership with book publisher Amazon, a Kindle version of The Vision Of Omigali can be downloaded free of charge on 7-8th November. Graham has a new website (http://www.thepowerofgray.com) and Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/thepowerofgray) to help keep fans informed about his future promotions and releases.
