Stewart F. Brennan has spent most of his life as a lean manufacturing specialist with a background in electrical engineering. As a lifelong critical thinker and analyst, he has always loved to study anything he could get his hands on, ranging from ancient history to current geopolitics and geoeconomics. In the past, he's published three volumes of poetry, prose, and political commentary in his series, The Activist Poet. Now, he's combined his wealth of experience within corporate operations and electronic development with his passion for ancient history and current events to write his action-packed, supernatural-thriller debut, The Shard of Asclepius.
