Book description
Otto and Wing have special permission to leave H. I.V. E.'s secret
island location to attend a funeral (all too common in their line of
business). But before they reach their destination they are ambushed.
Who would risk assassinating Otto Malpense, star pupil of the Higher
Institute of Villainous Education and favourite of Number One, the
most powerful villain alive? A new power is rising to challenge Number
One's authority, and they need H. I.V. E. and its powerful computer to
do so. Otto thought the only thing he wanted was to escape from H.
I.V. E., but now he's desperately trying to save it, and himself.
Mark Walden spent ten years producing video games for a living
before finally deciding that perhaps it was time to do some real work.
With the bitter taste of rejection from the NASA astronaut training
programme still in his mouth he decided that maybe he should try and
write a book instead. The fantastic result was H. I.V. E.
The Overlord Protocol is his second book
He is happily married (as is his wife, he hopes) and is the proud
father of Megan. He is owned by Marge, his cat, who has provided
invaluable assistance at every stage of the writing of both books.
