Lorcan Pike

Lorcan Pike writes speculative science fiction that explores how technology reshapes identity, autonomy, and the stories people tell themselves to survive. His work often unfolds in dystopian futures where progress has a price-andsomeone always pays it.

His recent fiction includes cyberpunk detective noir, blending hard-edged investigations with philosophical questions about selfhood, memory, and moral responsibility in engineered societies. Pike is particularly interested in what justice means when autonomy can be altered, erased, or rewritten, and how systems designed for order quietly drift toward control.

A former child actor, Lorcan has since worked in marketing, computer repair, and medical coding-backgrounds that inform his fascination with systems, optimization, and the human cost hidden beneath efficiency. He lives in the American Southeast with his wife and their three cats, who remain unimpressed by neon-lit futures and overdue case files.
