Author Biography

“Why don’t you learn something proper first, boy?” Nope, that was not the first sentence I heard after my birth. That came later. I was born on 21st March 1982 in Landau, a city in the southeast of Germany. According to corresponding statements from several family members, a return was demanded due to the constant and enormous noise level radiating from this little ‘bundle of joy’. “Mommy, can’t we give him back and get a puppy instead?” Thankfully, shop policy states: No returns! Thus, a happy childhood ensued followed by turbulent teenage years. Of course, I won’t spill all the details here. For one, that would ruin the arc of suspense. Also, there wouldn’t be much left for my memoirs. “An experiment turned failure – big time” So, let’s concentrate on the essentials. Of course, it is every parent’s heartfelt wish to animate their offspring to read. No sooner said than done! – „Treasure Island” was placed under the Christmas tree. An experiment turned failure – big time! Pirates? Treasure hunt? Nope. They had better luck on the second try though, a thick blue volume. I am talking – of course – about a Perry Rhodan silver edition volume, which was published as a special edition with a blue cover. In short, my love for Science Fiction was born. Naturally, at that time, I had no idea what a dime novel series was. After all, I had a massive book right in from of me. It was only years later, that I discovered the Perry First Edition and realised, woah, these things are published weekly! Shortly afterwards, I discovered another dime novel series I first came across as a book. I’m talking about “Professor Zamorra – Der Meister des Übersinnlichen” (“Professor Zamorra – Master of the Occult”). “… no filler episodes, no side plots …” 1980s and 1990s television was dominated by a very procedural narrative style – meaning that every week, the plot focused on one self-contained case. This changed more and more in the following years when streaming services started out, which meant that viewers could catch up with missed episodes. The industry was in dire need of this change and I was jumping for joy: no more filler episodes, no more side plots to prolong the storyline. Instead, fast-paced, lively narrative styles with cliffhangers and a close-knit web of plot points. Notice something? “Heliosphere 2265” and “Ein MORDs-Team” readers are hopefully nodding along with a grin on their face right now. ... more: www.andreassuchanek.de
