Autorenporträt
Stephen B. Pearl is a multiple published author whose works range across the speculative fiction field. Whether his characters are wandering the wilds of a post-oil future, braving a storm in a longship, or flying through the interplanetary void in an army surplus assault lander, his writings focus heavily on the logical consequences of the worlds he crafts.Stephen's inspirations encompass H.G. Wells, J.R.R. Tolkien, Frank Herbert, and Homer, among others. In writing the Freedom Saga, he has, among other factors, drawn on his diverse background and broad general knowledge garnered from preparing for and serving on seminars and panels at numerous shows and events. These panels and seminars range from Intelligent Spacecraft Design to Building Better Aliens. His training as an Emergency Medical Care Assistant, a SCUBA diver, and his long-standing interest in environmental technologies have factored into all his science fiction books, be they on or off the planet Earth.For more about Stephen and his works visit: www.stephenpearl.com
