  About the Author

  ROBERT J. SAWYER, a member of The Paleoanthropology Society, is the best-selling author of a dozen previous novels, including The Terminal Experiment, which won the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America’s Nebula Award for Best Novel of the Year; Starplex, which was both a Nebula and Hugo Award finalist; and Frameshift, Factoring Humanity, and Calculating God, all of which were also Hugo Award finalists.

  Sawyer has won twenty-five national and international awards for his fiction, including an Arthur Ellis Award from the Crime Writers of Canada, seven Aurora Awards (Canada’s top honor in science fiction), the Science Fiction Chronicle Reader Award, and the top SF awards in France (Le Grand Prix de l’Imaginaire), twice in Japan (Seiun), and twice in Spain (Premio UPC de Ciencia Ficciôn); he’s also been nominated for the Horror Writers Association’s Bram Stoker Award.

  Maclean’s: Canada’s Weekly Newsmagazine says, “By any reckoning Sawyer is among the most successful Canadian authors ever.” He is profiled in Canadian Who’s Who, has been interviewed over 150 times on TV (including on Rivera Live with Geraldo Rivera), and has given talks and [444] readings at countless venues including the U.S. Library of Congress and the Canadian Embassy in Tokyo. He lives in Mississauga, Ontario (just west of Toronto), with Carolyn Clink, his wife of seventeen years.
