The Hebras and the Demons and the Damned

Brenda Cooper

Brenda Cooper (www.brenda-cooper.com) lives in Kirkland, Washington. By day, she is the City of Kirkland’s CIO, and at night and in early morning hours, she’s a futurist and writer. “I’m interested in how new technologies might change us and our world, particularly for the better,” she says on her website. Her fiction has appeared in Nature, Analog, Asimov’s, Strange Horizons, and in anthologies. She has collaborated with Larry Niven on six short stories and on the novel Building Harlequin’s Moon (2005). Her own first novel, The Silver Ship and the Sea, was published in 2007, and its sequels are Reading the Wind (2008) and Wings of Creation (2009). Her novel Mayan December is out in 2011. Cooper had a strong year for short fiction in 2010 and had several stories in contention for this book.

“The Hebras and the Demons and the Damned” was published in Analog, which had a particularly good year in 2010, perhaps benefiting from the relative pressure of fantasy stories in other magazines—both F&SF and Asimov’s publish a lot of fantasy these days. The story is an adventure set on the colonized planet Fremont, the setting for her first novel.
