LEE FALIN fell in love with science while watching old Star Trek episodes with his mother. After completing a PhD in genetics, he discovered that real science wasn’t at all like Star Trek. Fortunately, he realized he enjoyed the fiction part of science fiction quite a bit more than the science part, so he started writing.

His favorite books include any good science fiction or fantasy story he wouldn’t be embarrassed to let his grandmother read, and anything written by Jane Austen.
