VJ Books Presents Author Greg Bear!

Author Greg BearGregory Dale "Greg" Bear (born August 20, 1951) is an American science fiction and mainstream author. Bear was born in San Diego, California. He attended San Diego State University (1968_73), where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree.

Bear is often classified as a hard science fiction author, based on the scientific details in his work. His work has covered themes of galactic conflict (Forge of God books), artificial universes (The Way series), consciousness and cultural practices (Queen of Angels), and accelerated evolution (Blood Music, Darwin's Radio, and Darwin's Children). His most recent work is the Forerunner Trilogy, written in the Halo universe.

While most of Bear's work is science fiction, he has written in other fiction genres. Examples include Songs of Earth and Power (fantasy) and Psychlone (horror). Bear has described his Dead Lines, which straddles the line between science fiction and fantasy, as a "high-tech ghost story." He has received many accolades, including five Nebula Awards and two Hugo Awards.
