Building the Worlds of Rogue Wave and Novum

Science fiction begins with imagination, but the most believable worlds are built with structure, detail, and purpose. To help visualize the settings of Rogue Wave and the Novum saga, my late brother Dave Rhea spend many years creating amazingly detailed 3D models of ships, interiors, and technology featured in my stories. These models served as both creative tools and world-building references, allowing me to explore how each environment functions long before it appeared on the page. These models still inspire me today.

The virtual tours below invite you to step beyond the written word and experience these worlds firsthand. Explore the bridge, walk the corridors, and see the spaces where the stories unfold.

These animated visualizations bring the worlds of Rogue Wave and Novum to life, showcasing the ships, environments, and technologies that inhabit the stories. Created from the same 3D models used during the world-building process, they offer a closer look at the design, scale, and realism behind the fiction.
