Bio

John M. Ford was, in his lifetime, a favorite author of many writers better known than he was, including Neil Gaiman and Robert Jordan. He won World Fantasy Awards for both his 1983 novel The Dragon Waiting and his 1988 poem "Winter Solstice, Camelot Station," and he won the Philip K. Dick Award for his 1993 novel Growing Up Weightless. His Star Trek novel The Final Reflection (1984) essentially created the nuanced Klingon culture seen later in the feature films, and his other novel in that universe, How Much For The Planet? (1987), was a Star Trek tale told as a Gilbert & Sullivan musical, complete with songs. He was a genius. He died in 2006.
