Christopher Stasheff is a science fiction and fantasy writer. His The Warlock Series is an enjoyable piece of science fiction. That is right, it is science fiction not fantasy even though it is about witches and warlocks. Two of his other series that I have enjoyed are A Wizard in Rhyme (a fantasy series) and Starthip Troupers (a science fiction series about a theatrical company).

Charles is also writes hard science fiction. He is was a technical author and programmer; he uses his past career to sprinkle modern technology into his writing, much to my delight.
