The Adventures of Milla Carter
5 primary works
Book 2
Revenge needs no salt to taste this good! "It's damn near impossible to put down. Milla Carter, the sexy, all-action heroine of Derek E Pearson's novel Body Holiday, is back in the sequel Shadow Players. This time, Milla's war against the sinister Body Holiday Foundation and its twisted founder is more than just personal. She's out to destroy them both and, quite frankly, who can blame her? This outfit makes big bucks from normalising some of the most depraved forms of human behaviour. Nothing is off-limits where these creeps are concerned and they deserve every bit of what's coming. One thing you can say about Pearson is that he's the possessor of an extraordinary imagination that brilliantly assaults every variant of the sci-fi genre. His writing is vivid, urban and unflinching in its descriptions, taking the reader on a breathtaking journey through Saturn's rings, outer-world 'constructs', altered perceptions and a glorious African landscape smouldering with sexual heat and the odour of violence. This is hard hitting storytelling with full-on language and a brutally splendid plot twist, which, if you make it to the end, will leave you crossing your legs!" Surrey Life magazine (UK), Juliette Foster
Book 3
Lethal is rarely this lovely__The concluding volume of this extremely witty, sexy, violent and popular fantasy adventure__ To her lover she's a walking dream, to her enemies she's a waking nightmare. Milla Carter, science fiction's sexiest heroine telepath, is back for the last chapter in the Body Holiday trilogy and the breathless pace is only matched by the manic humour. The hard core action moves from Japan to a luxury hotel in Tibet, an ice dome in Antarctica and the highest heights of the London sky tower. And this time Milla has her worthiest opponent in the form of the lovely and lethal assassin, Su Nami, a woman who is so much more than she seems. Imagination sets the pages alight and readers will ask themselves, who survives? Another page turning triumph from cyberpunk science fiction's newest cult author.
Book 4
Having escaped the carnage under an ice dome in Antarctica (in Pearson's Body Holiday trilogy), in Soul's Asylum the fiery telepath Milla Carter seeks the safety of a space facility within the Asteroid Belt with boyfriend Ben Forrester. She is `wanted' by the New York City Police Department as well as relentlessly hunted by some of the most powerful enemies on Earth. Her sister telepaths seek to destroy Milla for the threat she's become, as the only full spectrum telepath ever known. Soul's Asylum begins on a ledge 173 floors above the Moscow streets with the mysterious death of a young and very pregnant girl. Was it a suicide or was it murder? If it was suicide where is the girl's baby? The story travels from Moscow to New York where the telepath sisterhood are trying to find the full spectrum telepath they call 'The Dragon'. Such a person is thought to be little more than a myth, but every clue indicates that The Dragon is alive and lethally active. It must be stopped, and all the evidence points directly at Milla Carter. Meanwhile a number of mysterious and brutal murders remain unsolved all over the globe. When a French forensic pathologist is accidently injected with the body fluids of one of the victims the results set in motion a chain of actions that create the greatest and strangest pandemic the world has ever seen and threatens mankind with extinction. At the very edge of civilised space an alien intelligence waits to see if the trap it set three million years before will finally destroy its hated foe, all of humanity. "Pearson's brilliant imagination, edgy 'in your face' writing, and tightly structured plots are so addictive that his works are damn near impossible to put down" Surrey Life magazine (UK)
