About the Author
Robert J. Sawyer is one of only sixteen writers ever to win both a best-novel Hugo Award and a best-novel Nebula Award. The Hugos are the “people’s choice awards” of the SF field, voted on by the attendees of the annual World Science Fiction Convention, and the Nebulas are SF’s “Academy Awards,” bestowed by the members of the genre’s professional association, the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.
In total, Rob has won thirty-two national and international awards for his fiction, including eight Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy Awards (“Auroras”), as well as three Japanese Seiun Awards for Best Foreign Novel of the Year. He’s also won the Science Fiction Chronicle Reader Award and the Crime Writers of Canada’s Arthur Ellis Award, both for Best Short Story of the Year, as well as the Collectors Award for Most Collectable Author of the Year, as selected by the clientele of Barry R. Levin Science Fiction & Fantasy Literature, the world’s leading SF rare-book dealer.
Rob’s books are top-ten national mainstream bestsellers in Canada, and have hit number one on the bestsellers’ list published by Locus, the American trade journal of the SF field. He is the author of the bestselling “Neanderthal Parallax” and “Quintaglio Ascension” trilogies, plus ten stand-alone SF novels. In addition, he edits the “Robert J. Sawyer Books” SF imprint for Canada’s Red Deer Press, and is a frequent TV guest, with over two hundred appearances to his credit. He is also a highly sought-after speaker, having given keynote addresses at such varied conferences as the Second International Symposium on Physical Sciences in Space, the 2004 Annual Meeting of the Canadian Association of Science Centres, and BioMedex 2004.
Born in Ottawa in 1960, Rob now lives in Mississauga, a city just west of Toronto, with poet Carolyn Clink.
