Soul's Asylum - Star Weaver: The Further Adventures of Milla C...

2016 BOOK AWARD FINALIST, SCIENCE FICTION THE SUN newspaper on the first volume in the series, Soul’s Asylum: “ A weird, vivid and creepy book, not for the faint hearted. But it’s originality and top writing make for a great read ****.” TV Presenter JULIETTE FOSTER: "Pearson is the possessor of an extraordinary imagination that brilliantly assaults every variant of the sci-fi genre." Telepath and psychopath-buster Milla Carter continues to fight a far greater threat from outer space. London: Hovering over the inky shadows of the megacity’s crevassed streets, a patrol drone discovers a corpse – a dead woman, garroted with a cheese wire and scalped, the signature MO of the ‘Sioux’ serial killer who has prowled the capital for years. In hot pursuit, the sexy telepath Milla Carter finds herself incapable of reading the killer’s thoughts. The psychopath, who turns out to be telepath opaque, is damn near impossible to ensnare. In need of reinforcements, she joins the telepath sisterhood in their fight against members of the Earth’s Senate – until, they learn that a deadly alien swarm is closing in on the outer fringes of space.

About the Author

Foreword Indies BOOK AWARD Finalist: 2018 GODS' Warrior (Fantasy) 2017 GODS' Fool (Fantasy) 2016 GODS' Enemy (Fantasy) 2016 Star Weaver (Science Fiction) Derek E Pearson is a UK-based author and illustrator with more than a dozen published novels in the sci-fi and fantasy genres. Since gaining his bachelor's degree from Norwich School of Art in the late 1970s, Pearson has mainly worked as a children's book illustrator, including titles such as Tulsi the Tiger. Since the late 1980s, Pearson has also worked in publishing and journalism, specialising in the dental industry with his online magazine Dental Review. Celluloid Peach, Pearson's latest novel, is a grand, romantic and adventuresome departure from his usual writings, but brings with it the dark twist familiar to fans of fantasy and sci-fi. Pearson says, "When someone dies it has to matter. You have to believe a life has been lost. An author learns to love the people he lives with in his mind. They become real."
