About
Details
Appendices include a number of Piper's personal papers, a complete bibliography of Piper's works, and an essay on Piper's Terro-Human Future History series. Notable as the only available biography of an influential science fiction author whose work has stood up quite well, esp. Omnilingual. Probably better as an ebook, since the printed book has too small type with too long lines with too narrow margin.
