Derek E Pearson is a prolific writer of novels, with three series to his name as well as other works published or in progress since his debut in 2014. An art school graduate, Pearson is a witty, fun and unusual character in that he 'lives' his stories, hence the amazing output. In conversation he'll tell what it's like to merrily 'swim' in his extraordinary worlds alongside the highly-charged characters he creates and adores.

The Sun: The opening volume in the Soul's Asylum trilogy "is a weird, vivid and creepy book, not for the faint hearted. But its originality and top writing make for a great read." Novel Awarded FOUR STARS. Surrey Life: in the Body Holiday trilogy (prequel to Soul's Asylum) "Pearson's galactic-sized imagination delivers, with veiled gallows humour, a compelling image of a chic, high-tech society infused with a toxic strain that feeds on extreme violence. A gripping read that boldly and intelligently explores the vision of an ugly, amoral future. In this dystopian nightmare, privacy is non-existent, life is cheap, killers have fan clubs, while the only individuals who count for something are those with money. Milla's crusade has a biblical quality in which she is elevated as a force of hope against the corporate anti-Christ of the Body Holiday Foundation."
