Arthur Slade is a celebrated Canadian author, well-known for his fiction works. Slade was raised in the picturesque Cypress Hills of southwest Saskatchewan, where he discovered his passion for writing at a young age. His love for storytelling has led to the creation of several bestselling series and standalone books, including "The Hunchback Assignments" series, "Dust," "Tribes," and "Jolted."
Growing up, Slade's imagination was filled with a mix of traditional children's tales and science fiction classics. In his own words, he describes his unusual upbringing, "I was raised by hobbits. And dwarves. And a dragon named Smaug." This fantastical environment helped shape his unique storytelling voice, which blends humor, adventure, and heroism. Although his friends might argue that he grew up on a ranch in the Cypress Hills, chasing cows and reading books, Slade maintains his fondness for his imaginative upbringing.
Despite his playful recollections, Slade did attend university and worked in advertising, but he never lost his passion for creating other worlds. His writing invites readers to explore realms where spies can shape-shift, hero assassins can rise against empires, and even dragons can breathe fire and wisecrack. With a knack for weaving excitement and humor, Slade's stories offer a much-needed escape and adventure for readers of all ages.
