Author Biography
Jim Ladd is sadly not a real person, although there is a real author behind the Space Pirates series. If Jim did exist, we like to think that he'd live on an island with sharks swimming round it, writing on an old typewriter and wearing cut-off trousers with raggedy edges. He'd have a big beard and a telescope so he could keep an eye out for UFOs.
