A Town Called Taxi

Once you arrive, there’s no turning back

Daniel Starr loves a road trip and a good story, but when he stumbles upon the remote town of Taxi in Outback Queensland, everything he knows is turned upside down. As hidden truths surface, Daniel is drawn into a world of deception, lies, and chaos. In this strange town, questions arise: What is Betty hiding? Why does Taxi have a large crematorium? What is Medi-Corp up to? And what mysterious force is heading toward Earth? Amid the turmoil, Daniel finds unexpected love and uncovers deeper secrets, including the curious role of taxidermy in Taxi. As the town’s dark forces close in, Daniel’s life is irrevocably changed.

A Town Called Taxi is a tale of love, immortal souls, and friendships forged under extraordinary circumstances, set in a place that exists off the grid—where once you enter, there’s no turning back.

About the Author

Stephen Rose is an avid writer, who from an early age loved writing poetry, mostly on birthday cards for his wife and children. His love of science fiction started at about ten years old when he would stay up late on a Friday or Saturday night watching as many black and white sci-fi movies he could. After school he had Lost in Space, The Time Tunnel and Land of The Giants. After dinner if he was allowed, he would watch Star Trek or The Outer Limits. In High School he started reading science fiction books and has continued that love until now. He enjoys drawing, model making and until recently skateboarding

A Town Called Taxi was born early in 2020 during the onset of the Covid19 pandemic. The uncertainty of the future inspiring his storyline. He had just compiled all his poetry into book form and wishes to get that published at some stage. He then wrote his autobiography and decided to turn to fiction and keep writing. His biography has gone on the backburner for now as he feels there is more to his story.

Stephen has written two other books in this series called The Old Ones Saga, which are now ready for editing and hopefully published sometime in 2025.
