James Devo

James Devo was born and raised in South London, from whence he escaped using a mixture of science fiction and fantasy in any medium he could grasp. Over the last few shameful decades, he accidentally became a hardened TV professional and award-winning scriptwriter, developing a grubby sitcom for an American network, shorts shown in dingy English pubs and glittering international film festivals and full-length features with geek favourites attached. He decided to create the world of The Wonder as a novel when he discovered the reader's imagination had both the cheapest and richest effects budget.
