Neal Asher (b. 1961 in Billericay in Essex, England) is an author of science fiction short stories and novels. His work encompasses many classic science fiction tropes including world ruling AIs, androids, hive minds, aliens and time travel. His novels are characterised by fast paced action and violent encounters. It is difficult to absolutely codify the specific science fiction sub-genre in which he writes because, whilst the work is frequently epic in scope and thus nominally space opera, its graphic and aggressive tone resembles something more akin to cyberpunk.
