Darryl Sloan grew up in Northern Ireland during The Troubles. He was an Evangelical Christian for the first two decades of adulthood, before finally putting it behind him in favour of a more esoteric approach to spirituality. He is a critic of mainstream thinking (especially on religion) and has a keen interest in philosophy, spirituality, and the occult. His book "I, Universe" is the culmination of his work in these fields. He also writes science fiction novels and maintains a popular vlog on YouTube.
