Marc Pastor

Marc Pastor (Barcelona, 1977) és criminòleg i un explorador culturalment dispers. Va combatre els nazis a Montecristo i va traçar el perfil criminal de la Vampira de Barcelona a La mala dona (Ara Mini, 2017), distingida amb el premi de novel·la negra Crims de Tinta. Amb L’any de la plaga va alertar sobre una imminent invasió d’ultracossos i amb Bioko (Amsterdam, 2013) ens va descobrir una manera de viatjar en el temps. Amb Farishta (Amsterdam, 2017), segueix teixint una teranyina d'històries on predomina la ciència ficció, l'aventura i les referències pop. Ha publicat relats en diverses antologies, i, tot i que es poden llegir per separat, les seves ficcions es complementen i conformen un univers propi i únic. La seva obra ha estat traduïda

Notable events in his early life included the loss of a fingertip at the age of three to a bicycle; the loss of his two front teeth to his brother Richard's fist; and various broken bones, also incurred in dust-ups with Richard. (Richard went on to write The Hot Zone and The Cobra Event, which tells you all you need to know about what it was like to grow up with him as a brother.)

As they grew up, Doug, Richard, and their little brother David roamed the quiet suburbs o
