Peter Arthur was born in Australia where he lived until the age of 17. At that time his family came to the United States. He spent his last year of high school at Granite High in Salt Lake City. He did not go to college. In '79 he moved to Los Angeles. Over the ensuing years he worked as a workers comp fraud investigator (wasn't any good at tailing cars) and other jobs until he finally settled on sales. Mr Arthur has been on the road as a salesman for many years and had many adventures while making a living. He has traveled to most of the lower 48 and Hawaii at one time or another. In 1988 Peter had a very vivid dream. This dream became the basis for the interstellar culture called the "Directory of Stars and Planets" or more simply the Directory. Soon after this life changing dream he decided to write and set out on a long journey through classic literature. His goal was to find out what the best authors in the world did that made them the best. He returned to his first love, Science Fiction, and discovered that even though the genre was often out shone in pure writing quality SciFi still held a wide margin for its creativity. His first book entitled "The Fight for Immortality" is now available on Amazon/Kindle.

Appealing to the masses and especially to the youth of the world through the promise of adventure, education, and a future with endless possibilities, an alien force has easily began to overtake Earth without shedding a drop of blood in The Fight for Immortality by Peter Arthur. Though the aliens have taken on human form and have easily drawn in the vast majority of youth with their extraordinary ability to fulfill the basic desires for a proper lifestyle, career and family goals, there is one youth, Jack Cousins, who isn’t fooled by any of it. With the leaders of the United States government scrambling to get a hold on what is going on and attempt to stop it, Jack not only has the proper amount of skepticism about the true motivations of DE corporation, but has an extraordinary skill of his own that will help him fight back against overwhelming forces. He is forced to accept a challenge which borders on the impossible and he must win the fight for immortality or die in the process.
The Fight for Immortality is a brilliantly thought out novel with enough realism to make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. Peter Arthur expertly shows how an alien force, understanding the common thinking of humans and the things that it is correct and morally right to pursue, can become not only the stumbling block, but the means of eliminating us. Packed full of suspense, intrigue and realism, it is an enormous comfort that The Fight for Immortality is a work of fiction. I hope.
