Deze auteur/auteure creëert meeslepende verhalen die de ingewikkelde dans tussen mensheid en technologie verkennen.

Met een scherp oog voor detail en een diepgaand begrip van de menselijke natuur, weven ze ingewikkelde plots die lezers uitdagen de ethische implicaties van vooruitgang te overwegen. Hun kenmerkende stem resoneert met een unieke mix van speculatieve fictie en inzichtelijk sociaal commentaar.
Set against the backdrop of a devastated Earth, the remnants of humanity unite with the Galactic League to seek vengeance against the alien Sejiedi. This alliance is fraught with tension, as they navigate their shared mission to reclaim their lost world. Central to their struggle is the concept of the "Honor of the Wing," which embodies their pride and determination in the face of overwhelming odds. The narrative explores themes of loyalty, resilience, and the complexities of interstellar warfare.
"It's the end of the world as we know it. What can you make of it but art?" The colony world of Reis was once a prosperous, glittering center of manufacture and trade. But now, in the grip of planet-wide plague, Reis has been quarantined--cut off from the rest of the galaxy. Only electronic communication can cross the barrier. No one knew where the plague came from. No one knows how it is spread. And no one knows who will live or die. Which leaves one big question: What do you do in the meantime, while you're waiting to find out? Time is killing them, but the handful of disaffected artists who hang at Club Metz are past masters at killing time. Society is falling apart; the A.I. that runs everything is acting weirder every day--but they'll find ways to survive, or at least prevail. Editorial Reviews: "One of the most original portrayals of artificial intelligence since Arthur C. Clarke's duplicitous HAL." --"Booklist" "A mature and insightful work of science fiction." --"The New York Review of Science Fiction" "Marvelously told." --Jack Womack, author of "Let's Put the Future Behind Us" "A truly marvelous book. The writing is skillful and stylish, and the science is cutting-edge--you can't really ask for a lot more." --"Absolute Magnitude"
