Bob Blanton

Bob Blanton has been an avid reader ever since his mother first took him to a library at age five. He has toyed with writing for years since college but was always too busy to start a novel. The "stone series" developed almost by itself as he was trying to sleep on long flights to Asia and Europe. He managed to write it and two follow-on novels while he was working, but never had the time to polish them. After he retired to the beach in Mexico, the only thing that competes with writing is the sound of the ocean and sunsets over the water. Now that he has published his series, he hopes you enjoy reading them as much as he has had writing them. Check back for other books as he continues to ply his new trade.

Jerry Pournelle

Dr Jerry Eugene Pournelle was an American science fiction writer, engineer, essayist, and journalist, who contributed for many years to the computer magazine Byte, and from 1998 until his death maintained his own website and blog.

From the beginning, Pournelle's work centered around strong military themes. Several books describe the fictional mercenary infantry force known as Falkenberg's Legion. There are strong parallels between these stories and the Childe Cycle mercenary stories by Gordon R. Dickson, as well as Heinlein's Starship Troopers, although Pournelle's work takes far fewer technological leaps than either of these.

Pournelle spent years working in the aerospace industry, including at Boeing, on projects including studying heat tol

C.S. Garrand

I write science fiction. Yes, this "biography" will be more an "autobiography", since I'm not about to write of myself in the third person.

I was born and grew up in northern New Jersey, in the early 1970's. A generation X'er, I grew up running around outside with bare feet, addicted to 70s and 80s sitcoms. I've always been a big fan of science fiction. I can remember standing in the massive line that wound about the mall parking lot just to see the premiere of Star Wars. Later, I would read or watch anything I could get my hands on. The original Dune series, Star Trek and all of its iterations and spinoffs.

Early authors - some of whom I still cherish today - include Dan Simmons (Hyperion/Endymion), Asimov, Bradbury, Wells and many others.

J. Randall Christopher

Heavily influenced by science fiction at a young age, J. Randall Christopher was often taken to the movies by his older brother, beginning when Randall was only six years old. The second movie Randall ever watched was the Battle in Outer Space, a 1959 movie adapted from a story by Jojiro Okami, who was an aeronautical engineer and test pilot at the time of the writing.

Captivated by the imagery and display of technology in this foreign film, this love of science fiction was also rewarded by such films as 2001-A Space Odyssey in 1968, Star Wars in 1977 and the television show Star Trek, the original series. Thank you, Gene Roddenberry.

Other significant influences include H.G. Wells, Jules Verne, Ray Bradburry and many other marvelous stories
