JOHN SCALZI is one of the most popular and acclaimed SF authors to emerge in the last decade. His massively successful debut Old Man's War won him science fiction's John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer. His New York Times bestsellers include The Last Colony, Fuzzy Nation, and Redshirts; which won 2013's Hugo Award for Best Novel. Material from his widely read blog The Whatever (whatever.scalzi.com) has also earned him two other Hugo Awards. He lives in Ohio with his wife and daughter.
Praise for Lock In This is the kind of thriller that Michael
Crichton, Lincoln Child, and James Rollins do so well. Add John
Scalzi to that list. --Douglas Preston, #1 NYT bestselling author
of The Kraken Project and Impact As much as Scalzi has the
scientific creativity of a Michael Crichton, he also has the
procedural chops of a Stephen J. Canell to craft a whodunit with
buddy-cop charm and suspects aplenty--most of them in someone
else's body. --USA Today
"Satisfying." --NPR "Scalzi takes his work to an entirely new
level." --Cory Doctorow "A smart, thoughtful near-future
thriller.... This powerful novel will intrigue and entertain both
fans and newcomers." --Publishers Weekly, starred review "John
Scalzi may be the most entertaining writer in SF today." --Toronto
Star
Praise for Head On
Particularly relevant....A fun, breezy thriller, one that showcases
a world that carries with it some extremely astute commentary on
some of the real problems that we face in our own. --The Verge Head
On doesn't care if you've read Lock In or not, but it does care if
you enjoy a mystery wrapped up inside a science fiction
novel....This might even be one of the best introductions to Scalzi
out there. --Culturess [Scalzi's] prose flows like a river,
smoothly carrying us through the story; his characters are
beautifully crafted; and his future world is impeccably designed,
at the same time wildly imaginative and wholly plausible.
--Booklist, starred review This taut mystery, filled with memorable
characters in a well-constructed world, will keep readers on the
edges of their seats. --Publishers Weekly, starred review Readers
will definitely showup for the witty banter and smartass
takedowns....Very clever, wonderfully satisfying fun. --Kirkus
