Preacher Spindrift - Foreword Indies Book Award Finalist, Fantasy (all 3 volumes)
TV Presenter JULIETTE FOSTER: Pearson is the possessor of an extraordinary imagination that brilliantly assaults every variant of the sci-fi genre.
The first great allied tank battle takes place at Cambrai in the Pas de Calais. At first it proves a rousing success but after a hard fought two weeks German forces repulse the British on every front. Reserves called up in support of the retreat include five hundred American engineers, including captain Colin Cahoon, a deeply religious Texan. Cahoon is injured during an enemy shell bombardment and wakes up in a hospital bed to find he is being treated by the enigmatic Dr Spindrift. Cahoon finds himself embroiled in a titanic struggle that will stretch the Texan's religious beliefs, his sanity and his courage to breaking point. During the final year of The War To End All Wars, the future of all mankind will be decided.

The enigmatic Preacher Spindrift's GODS having deserted him, he is now the last of his kind remaining on Earth.

His killing sparks a nightmare for Sheriff Caleb Sawyer and the townspeople of Mule's Ass - named after the last thing the founder looked at before setting up camp.
