Solen var ved at gå ned over Madrid og malede himlen med en intens orange, der reflekterede skyskrabernes vinduer, som om hele byen stod i flammer. I en lille rodet lejlighed i hjertet af Lavapiés sad Daniel Sánchez foran et virvar af kabler og flimrende sk rme med hans blodskudte jne rettet mod endel se kodelinjer. Den konstante brummen fra computerfans var som en forvr nget vuggevise, den eneste lyd i et rum, der lugtede af gammel kaffe og visne dr mme. Daniel, med sit pjuskede sorte hår og flere dages sk gstubbe, lignede mere en skibbruden end den geniale programm r, han engang var. "Der må v re en måde," mumlede han for sig selv, og fingrene fl j over tastaturet med hektisk hast. "En vej ud af dette hul." Hans blik gled et jeblik til bunken af uåbnede breve i hj rnet af hans skrivebord. Regninger, fraflytningsmeddelelser, trusler fra kreditorer. Hver konvolut var en stikkende påmindelse om, hvordan han var nået til dette punkt. Daniel lukkede jnene og tillod sig selv et jebliks svaghed. Han huskede sp ndingen, adrenalinen fra de ikke-så-fjerne dage, hvor kryptovalutaernes verden virkede som det forj ttede land. Han havde investeret alt: hans opsparing, lån, endda penge lånt fra venner og familie. Og så, på et jeblik, var det hele forsvundet.
Francisco Angulo
Madrid, 1976
Enthusiast of fantasy cinema and literature and a lifelong fan of Isaac Asimov and Stephen King, Angulo starts his literary career by submitting short stories to different contests. At 17 he finishes his first book - a collection of poems - and tries to publish it. Far from feeling intimidated by the discouraging responses from publishers, he decides to push ahead and tries even harder.
In 2006 he published his first novel "The Relic", a science fiction tale that was received with very positive reviews. In 2008 he presented "Ecofa" an essay on biofuels, whereAngulorecounts his experiences in the research project he works on. In 2009 he published "Kira and the Ice Storm".A difficultbut very productive year, in2010 he completed "Eco-fuel-FA", a science book in English. He also worked on several literary projects: "The Best of 2009-2010", "The Legend of Tarazashi 2009-2010", "The Sniffer 2010", "Destination Havana 2010-2011" and "Company No.12".
He currently works as director of research at the Ecofa project. Angulo is the developer of the first 2nd generation biofuel obtained from organic waste fed bacteria. He specialises in environmental issues and science-fiction novels.
His expertise in the scientific field is reflected in the innovations and technological advances he talks about in his books, almost prophesying what lies ahead, as Jules Verne didin his time.
