    Author

    Eric Steven Johnson

    Born on the Satellite of Cool and sent to Earth to save humanity from mundane Science Fiction, Eric Steven Johnson has been writing since his teenage years. He is the author of the ongoing superhero short fiction series 'The Crusaders: Justice Above All' and likens his storytelling style to that of comic book creators. Relying on serialization rather than novelization, most of his work can be read in one sitting and promises an action packed thrillride from start to finish. When not staring into the stars imagining new storylines and struggling over word choices, Johnson passes the time with his lovely girlfriend or playing games with his son. He also has an unhealthy obsession with the Detroit Tigers Major League Baseball franchise.
