📖 Biography
Arthur Pendelton writes as if he is documenting the world from a leather armchair in 1895, even when describing a Dyson sphere. A scholar out of time, he treats every story as a scientific expedition, documenting the fantastical with rigid, gentlemanly precision. His work appeals to those who long for the age of discovery, where science was indistinguishable from magic and every map had dragons at the edges.
