David ShermanDavid Sherman is the author or co-author of some three dozen books, most of which are about Marines in combat. He has written about US Marines in Vietnam (the Night Fighters series and three other novels), and the DemonTech series about Marines in a antasy world. The 18th Race trilogy is military science fiction. Other than military, he wrote a non-conventional vampire novel, The Hunt, and a mystery, Dead Man's Chest. He has also released a collection of short fiction and non-fiction from early in his writing career, Sherman's Shorts; the Beginnings. With Dan Cragg he wrote the popular Starfist series and its spin off series, Starfist: Force Recon-all about Marines in the Twenty-fifth Century.; and a Star Wars novel, Jedi Trial. His books have been translated into Czech, Polish, German, and Japanese. After going to war as a U.S. Marine infantryman, and spending decades writing about young men at war, he's burnt out on the subject and has finally come home. Today he's writing short fiction, mostly steampunk and farcical fantastic Westerns. He lives in sunny South Florida, where he doesn't have to worry about hypothermia or snow-shoveling-induced heart attacks. He invites readers to visit his website, novelier.com. Read More Read Less
