A DRY, QUIET WAR

by Tony Daniel

One of the fastest-rising new stars of the ’90s, Tony Daniel grew up in Alabama, lived for a while on Vashon Island in Washington State, and in recent years, in the best tradition of the young Bohemian artist, has been restlessly on the move—from Vashon Island to Europe, from Europe to New York City, from New York City to Alabama, and, most recently, back to New York City again. He attended the Clarion West Writers Workshop in 1989, and since then has become a frequent contributor to Asimov’s Science Fiction, as well as to markets such as The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, Amazing, SF Age, Universe, Full Spectrum, and elsewhere.

Like many writers of his generation, Tony Daniel first made an impression on the field with his short fiction. He made his first sale, to Asimov’s, in 1990 with “The Passage of Night Trains,” and followed it up with a long string of well-received stories both there and elsewhere throughout the first few years of the ’90s, stories such as “The Careful Man Goes West,” “Sun So Hot I Froze To Death,” “Prism Tree,” “Death of Reason,” “Candle,” “No Love in All of Dwingeloo,” “The Joy of the Sidereal Long-Distance Runner,” “The Robot’s Twilight Companion,” and many others. His story “Life on the Moon” was a finalist for the Hugo Award in 1996, and won the Asimov’s Science Fiction Readers Award poll. His first novel, Warpath, was released simultaneously in America and England in 1993, and he subsequently won $2000 and the T. Morris Hackney Award for his as-yet-unpublished mountain-climbing novel Ascension. In 1997, he published a major new novel, Earthling, which has gotten enthusiastic reviews everywhere from Interzone to The New York Times.

In “A Dry, Quiet War,” he spins a colorful and exotic story of a battle-weary veteran who returns from a bewilderingly strange high-tech future war only to face his greatest and most sinister challenge right at home . . .
