Biography

He especially wrote Science-fiction but also of the Fantastique, Romance blacks and - with the scientific collaboration of Yves Coppens - novels located in Prehistory ( the Dream of Lucy ).

From 1960 with 1963 it learns the drawing by correspondence and launches out in the Band-drawn , which will be worth to him its first press article in 1963 in Is republican in connection with its data base putting in scene a hero of the Far-west: Bob Binder.

Extremely of this experiment and having enormously learned on the history from the the United States it launches out in a literary career by adopting its kind of predilection: the Western. Its first novel, the Track of Dakota , appeared in 1965 under the signature of Pierre Pelot, is held in the the United States shortly after the American Civil War. It appears in the collection Marabout Junior which also publishes the adventures of Bob Morane (of Henri Vernes). Other westerns follow.

In 1967, Pierre Pelot creates the character of Dylan Stark, a mongrel free-Indian born in the south of the United States.

This novel appears in 1967 in the collection Pocket Marabout. It receives this same year the Prix of the Thirteen for the Color of God and Marie on December 22nd.

The inspiration of Pelot dissociates that of other novelists for youth by the fact that its novels finish often badly and that its characters are not supermen (contrary to Bob Morane, for example). Another striking characteristic is verbosity: descriptions (characters, places) long, are sometimes well removed, but can also be tiresome. Many repetitions, and periods, contribute to give this impression.

These characteristics are found in the science-fiction novels that Pierre Grosdemange will publish a little later in the collection “anticipation” at black Fleuve, under the pseudonym of Pierre Suragne.

Pierre Pelot also published contemporary novels, like the Sky crashed to pieces , published in 1975, which puts in scene a deserter, in one time when the military service was still obligatory in France.
