About the Author

EDWARD M. LERNER worked in high tech and aerospace for thirty years, as everything from engineer to senior vice president, for much of that time writing science fiction as his hobby. Since 2004 he has written full-time.

His novels range from near-future technothrillers, like Small Miracles and Energized, to futuristic mysteries, like The Company Man, to such traditional SF-adventure fare as Dark Secret and his InterstellarNet series. Collaborating with Larry Niven, Lerner also wrote the space-opera epic Fleet of Worlds series of Ringworld companion novels. His 2015 novel, InterstellarNet: Enigma, won the inaugural Canopus Award "honoring excellence in interstellar writing." His fiction has also been nominated for Locus, Prometheus, and Hugo awards.

In shorter forms, Lerner's writing has appeared in anthologies, collections, and many of the usual SF magazines and websites. He also writes about science and technology, most notably including Trope ing the Light Fantastic: The Science Behind the Fiction.

Reviews

“Lerner definitely knows how to tell a story.”―Winnipeg Free Press

“Here’s an author you definitely need to check out.”―Asimov’s Science Fiction

"The archaeological mystery and first contact narrative, once underway, offer impressive character work and invigorating twists on the way to an action-packed, if familiar, finale. Hard SF fans who stick with this will find a buried lunar treasure."-Publishers Weekly

“Lerner’s world-building and extrapolating are top notch.”―SFScope

“When people talk about good hard SF—rigorously extrapolated but still imbued with the classic sense-of-wonder—they mean the work of Edward M. Lerner, the current master of the craft.”―Hugo & Nebula Award-winning author, Robert J. Sawyer

“One of the leading global writers of hard science fiction.”―The Innovation Show
