Press Kit
M.A.R. Pereira loves a good story told by real people whom the reader can relate to. He’s an author who doesn’t believe in invincible heroes and heroines, or in magic that defeats armies single handedly. In fact, he doesn’t believe in black and white reality at all. With a background in literature and narrative craft, he strives to avoid common pitfalls and steer clear of familiar tropes.
Literature is not for escapism, he believes—it is meant to sharpen the mind, deepen understanding, and provoke questions.
Guided by an innate gift for storytelling, he brings a vivid imagination and sharp narrative instinct to the world of fantasy fiction. Also a freelance editor and a poet for young readers, his work is known for its lyrical prose, immersive worlds, and enduring sense of curiosity. Whether writing for children or crafting sweeping epics, Pereira invites readers into stories shaped by a deep love of language, literature, realism, and the unknown.
In addition to writing fiction, he enjoys composing poetry and spending time with his Labrador, Darry. You can sign up to receive updates about his work here.
