About the author

Steven M. Caddy was born in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, but spent most of his childhood in Grantham, Lincolnshire. Steve has always been creative, showing early talent for music and drama, before discovering the art of computer programming.
Steve attended the King’s School in Grantham, where he spent most of his lunch times in the school’s library, or playing the school’s pipe organ. Steve continued his passion for the arts while studying software engineering at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth. He contributed to the refurbishment of a set of local church bells, sang with the Elizabethan Madrigal Singers, and was a committed member of the team at Aberystwyth’s hospital radio station, where Steve was able to develop a taste for sports journalism.
After graduating in 2001, Steve moved to Newark-on-Trent in Nottinghamshire, where he found work as a software engineer, and still found time to play the church organ. It was while playing the church organ that Steve started to develop ideas for stories, keeping a notebook at the console to record his thoughts.
In November 2011, Steve participated in National Novel Writing Month, and finally committed his random notes to the page in the form of a short novel. It was during that month he met his wife, Lorna, through their common interest in creative writing. They were married in 2014.
Hobbies: playing the church organ, bell ringing, hospital radio, and square dancing.
Favourite movies: Stand By Me, The Martian, Gravity.
Favourite books: Harry Potter, The Fault in Our Stars, The Hunger Games.
Favourite bands: The Beautiful South, Jake Bugg, Casting Crowns.

5.0 out of 5 stars A cracking adventure story!
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseIt would seem that space is having something of a renaissance. First we had Chris Hadfield shooting a music video in orbit, then we watched Tim Peake present a BRIT Award to Adele live from the ISS. Space is cool again. But, much more importantly, NASA and other space programs have finally embraced the concept of space belonging to everyone. Space exploration is no longer a race between warring nations, but a joint, global venture to discover, learn and tweet cool pictures.
So, no better time for Steven M. Caddy to release his debut novel, In Exchange. The novel follows Michael Morgan, the first ever human raised in space, as he comes down to Earth to meet Peter Davies. The two boys are part of an experiment, an exchange. Peter will show Michael what it’s like to live on Earth, and, after some gruelling training, Michael will lead Peter back to the space station Daedalus.
Michael and Peter are likeable leads and watching their friendship grow is a real pleasure. Especially during a trip full of camping-related capers anyone who embarked on such adventures in their youth will immediately recognise. The novel is also beautifully researched. You will learn so much about space (for example, sleeping in orbit is troublesome because of phosphenes; spontaneous flashes of light visually perceived by astronauts), but the facts are never overwhelming. Technical detail never takes precedence over story and this is good to see.
On top of that the novel dishes out plenty of exciting catastrophes and the ending comes with a sizeable twist. Whether you’re on board with the second Space Age, or just looking for a good adventure story, In Exchange is the book for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Adults take backstage for this story.
Format: KindleVerified PurchaseWriting books that boys and teenagers will enjoy is to be encouraged enthusiastically and though it is difficult for an adult to know what will catch their imagination, this novel seems to have a lot going for it.The International Space Station is a reality for young people, more so than the fuzzy moon landing for previous generations; they see the crew working, schools have followed our own Major Tim Peake. Young readers know how space stations work, the author had to get his facts right, but science does not spoil a great tale of two boys, very different, but lonely. Young readers could empathise with both. There are fun adventures for the two boys, but a poignant ending.
