Frank Kurns

Species: Human

This describes Frank's presence in the TKG Universe. The stories he wrote are immortalized in his own series in the Gambit, Frank Kurns Stories. Frank is the one who recorded the inspired machinations of Barnabas and Team BMW in the beer competition, showing what a sneaky character Barnabas really is. It may be read in his fourth book Challenges, in the second part, Seed Vault.

Frank has a family, and a son, Giles (see Characters, Giles Kurns), who becomes a space anthropologist, with his own series as well,Confessions of a Space Anthropologist.

Frank maintains his presence throughout the gambit, a solid support, always with his notebook, recording for posterity.
