Max is a man who knows how to survive. ‘The rocks’ are the earthquake-racked result of an apocalypse that no one remembers. After decades of solitude, Max arrives in Brac, the last remaining human town on Earth and somewhere that shouldn’t exist. He begins to question the rocks’ dominance, and embarks on an adventure to discover whether a place exists where the barrenness of the rocks truly ends; and ultimately, to discover whether there is more to life than merely surviving.

Dirty Clouds and Puffs of Stardust follows Max’s emotional and often humorous journey across, under and eventually beyond the rocks as he searches for this better place, somewhere with both physical and emotional location.

Jonathan Dalton : "This is my first novel. Started in April 2007 and finished in February 2008. It is essentially about depression, but I did not intend for it to depress - quite the opposite. I hope it moves you and I hope you like it. Any questions, just ask! "
