Description

This is the third book of a trilogy. The first was Aussie Pilot; the second, Aussie Knowhow; and now the final book of the series, Aussie Impasse. All books are pure fantasy and include some spectacular deductions, magic, science fiction, and illusionary events that many young Australian boys dreamed of well past the time they reached maturity. The merged happenings in most instances were created by other writers, films, or television exposures and were strung together to form the fictitious, exciting life of a hero and his friends.
As previously stated, the book has been growing in the writer’s head since he was an adolescent and, over time, has been progressively added to, regurgitated, and reinvented. As the writer discovered them, they became merged until now, where it would seem they are no longer recognizable.
The third book of the series is the end of the need to complete the story and hopefully to conclude an enjoyable reading experience—a mental escape, perhaps even a pleasing fantasy, for the patient and forgiving readers that inexplicably discovered this work.
It is my sincere hope that when you all close the last page, you will have a pleasant smile on the face and will quietly say, “That was a satisfying read. I quite enjoyed the entire journey.”
Again, my heartfelt thanks to my wife, Judy; my children Michelle, Vanessa, and David; and their children Matthew, Benjamin, Finn, Aislinn, Caelan, Neve, and Taya for providing the encouragement, support, and love that I needed so much to make me finish what I just had to start.
So book 3 begins.

FOREWORD
This is the last book of a trilogy; the first is Aussie Pilot , the second Aussie Know-How , and the final book of the series Aussie Impasse . All books are pure fantasy and include some spectacular deductions, magic, science fiction, and illusionary events that many young Australian boys dream of well after they reach maturity. The merged happenings, in most instances, have been created by other writers in literature, film, or television and are strung together to form the exciting fictitious life of a hero and his friends.
The books had been growing in the writer’s head since he was a young adolescent and, over time, had been progressively developed, regurgitated, and reinvented. As the writer discovered them, they became merged until now, where it would seem they were no longer recognisable.
The Aussie Pilot story begins with David Granger as a newly qualified RAAF pilot who experiences several war events, during which he has met his first wife, a navy surgeon. With her assistance, he also becomes a surgeon; but feeling imprisoned by the medical role, they decide to purchase land in Gove, Northern Territory, Australia, to develop an international market garden. He discovers Orack, an ancient computer, and meets the newly appointed US president; and together, they attempt to bring peace in the Middle East. David’s wife is assassinated, and he returns to Geraldton, Western Australia, where he surprisingly meets Pam, a secret witch princess. They marry, and with the assistance of Orack, they recover the planet Atlantis. In the end, they enter a space war and save Earth from the vicious Dudgeon alien, the Supreme Commander.
Aussie Know-How , the sequel, continues with some of David Granger’s life experiences, international events, the business tycoons who seek to rule not only Earth but also the three other nearby planets, and several akin adventures. By accessing the ancient magic of Merlin and Morgana, the ability to change dimension, and the speed for space travel, the hero – together with his family, friends, and Orack – defeats the bad guys. And towards the end, the immediate galaxy has become a far better place. Our hero contemplates retirement, so at this point, Aussie Know-How concludes.
The third book of the series completes the story and hopefully concludes an enjoyable reading experience, a mental escape, or perhaps even a pleasing fantasy for the patient and forgiving readers who have inexplicably discovered my work.
It is my sincere hope that when you all close the last page, you have a pleasant smile on your face and quietly say, ‘That was a satisfying read. I quite enjoyed the entire journey.’
Again, my heartfelt thanks to my wife, Judy; my children, Michelle, Vanessa, and David; and their children, Matthew, Benjamin, Finn, Aislinn, Caelan, Neve, and Taya, for providing the encouragement, support, and love that I needed so much to make me finish what I just had to start.
So, book 3 begins.

CHAPTER 1
David woke at 5.30 a.m., got out of bed, and scratched his head. Still in bed was his wife, Pam. Rather than disturb her, he rose and stood at the window overlooking the magnificent bay lying in front of their house in Paihia, North Island, New Zealand. Dawn was rising, the sun not yet visible, but streaks of yellow sunlight were starting at the horizon and streaming skywards, only to bounce off the voluminous intermittent clouds, making those not illuminated look dark and ominous. There were two cruise ships and three container ships at anchor, and off to the side, he could see one of the floatplanes of his friend Hemi alongside its floating jetty. He would never get tired of looking at that view, especially first thing in the morning.
Pam stirred, opened one eye, and saw her husband leaning over, about to wake her. She grinned with that special smile of hers, and he melted. God, I love this woman , he thought. She took his offered hand, lightly threw her legs over the side of the bed, sprang up, and kissed his nose. Then she was gone on her way to the bathroom. Without further comment, they each changed into their jogging gear and raced out the front door, slamming it shut behind them. They were very happy, and now that he was retired (only for a week), things were much slower and decidedly less active.
They sped effortlessly over their habitual pathway, and slowly, it became lighter as the sun rose. They passed several of the usual with a wave and good cheer, and as they ran, more and more people were emerging from their houses. As they neared home, the streets became busy, and things took on a normality about them. They raced each other for the last 100 metres, and David let Pam beat him to the front door as he retrieved his keys from his pocket. Lightly puffing, they sat at the kitchen table while they contemplated the day’s events, if any, now that he was retired.
There were several things they intended to do today; one was to visit Orack’s new spaceship under construction in the cavern. The concept excited them both, and as the ship was only a couple of weeks off completion, they were particularly interested to see the latest internal fit-out that had been generated from Zavier’s computer rather than Orack’s upgraded old files.
They showered in their separate bathrooms and casually dressed. It was going to be a nice warm day, maybe twenty-eight degrees. David suggested they have breakfast at the cafe down the road and then zap to the cavern.
Suddenly, David had a scary feeling; he felt sweaty as if he had caught a wog. He looked at Pam, and she too was feeling strange. She was visibly shaking. Something awful had happened to one of the family, and they needed to know who.
Pam telepathically called Robert, David’s son, in the cavern. David called his daughter, Susan, in Sydney, Australia; and immediately, he received her in pain. By telepathy, he asked where she was. With great effort, she told him. They checked if they had things they needed and immediately, hand in hand, zapped to where Susan lay on the ground. There were several push bikes down and colourfully clad bike riders all being attended by passers-by. They said ambulances were on their way.
David advised he was a doctor, and both he and Pam went beside Susan. They could see that her right leg was completely crushed, her hip was bleeding, and her crash helmet was lying smashed nearby. While David worked on his daughter, Pam checked the other riders. Two looked seriously hurt, but the other three riders, she considered, would be OK.
David worked feverishly. He knew what
