Science fiction has long held a treasured place in literature. It can take us to unimaginable worlds and introduce us to creatures who become friends and foes. Sometimes it gives us an imagined glimpse of our very real future.
We are happy to host some amazingly creative science fiction authors this year, led by 2012 Nebula award winner Kim Stanley Robinson.
Kim Stanley Robinson is one of the most well-known and respected science fiction writers in the world, with a reality-based approach in the spirit of Isaac Asimov that has made him a social thinker speaking “for the future and from the future”.
Raymond E. Feist is the award-winning author of 29 novels that make up the bestselling Riftwar Cycle series. The final book in the series will come out this year.
Michael Cassutt’s latest novel with writing partner David S. Goyer, Heaven’s Fall, has been sold to Warner Bros. as a feature film series. His other works have appeared in Asimov’s Magazine and The Year’s Best Science Fiction among others.
