Joe Haldeman
Amerikansk forfatter som er en af SF's allerbedste navne. Haldeman skrev allerede I 1969 sin første SF novelle og I 1974 udkom hans bog "The Forever War", som blev hans store gennembrud og som han fik både en Hugo og en Nebula for. Haldeman skriver næsten aldrig fortsættelser, så derfor er der først for et par år siden kommet bogen "Forever Peace" , ikke en fortsættelse, men med samme tema, og nu hans seneste bog "Forever Free" som ER en rigtig fortsættelse. Haldeman har blandt andet også skrevet "Worlds" trilogien; "Worlds", "Worlds Apart", og "Worlds Enough and Time". Laurell K. Hamilton
Laurell K. Hamilton was born in Heber Springs, Arkansas but grew up in Sims, Indiana, a hamlet with a population of about one hundred souls. Laurell's mother died in a car crash in 1969, after which time her grandmother held the household together. Her mother's death, her grandmother's role in raising her, and having grown up with no men in the home are "the three things that made who I am," she says. She still believes she would have grown up to be a writer regardless.
In 1994, Laurell published her first Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter book, GUILTY PLEASURES, and she hasn't stopped writing since. She has written nine additional Anita Blake books, and in October, 2000, began the New York Times bestselling Meredith Gentry series for Ballantine Books. She says she writes because to not write -- even for her own enjoyment -- would be like not breathing. It is just something she has to do. She now resides in St. Louis, Missouri with her husband, her young daughter, three pug dogs, and an ever-fluctuating assortment of fish. Peter F Hamilton
