About the author. Born in the American Midwest, H. Prescott Lemon grew up reading horror, fantasy, and science fiction paperbacks that were far too lurid and violent for his young, impressionable mind. His writing style intertwines horror, fantasy, science fiction, and humor into what he describes as "occult comedies." Today, H. Prescott Lemon resides in Iowa with his wife and a herd of unruly cats. Both his wife and the cats tolerate his eccentricities as he churns out pulp fantasy with all the reclaimed zeal of his aforementioned youth. When not writing or herding cats, he is an old school dungeon master as well as rock & roll enthusiast. Prescott is also a member of the Underlords Universe, a conclave of likeminded creatives who combine music and story into a conceptual universe.
