The author
Stephen Clarke

The secret is out: Stephen Clarke also wrote A Year in the Merde under the pseudonym Paul West.

Stephen is a full-time journalist who specializes in travel and music. He has also written comedy sketches for BBC radio, gags for a stand-up comedian, and comic-book stories for the legendary American illustrator Gilbert Shelton.

Beam Me Up is Stephen's first full-length novel, and was inspired by a long-held belief that the world would be a much safer place if its political leaders modelled themselves either on female punk-rock singers or Star Trek's Captain Kirk. Or preferably both.
