Glen Cook:
Science Fiction Technology and Ideas
Glen Charles Cook (b. 1944) is an American science fiction and fantasy writer, best known for The Black Company and Garrett P.I. fantasy series. His love of writing began in grade school, and in high school he wrote the occasional article for his school's newspaper. After high school, Cook spent time in the United States Navy and later workes his way through college. Cook began to write in earnest while working for General Motors at an auto assembly plant in a job which was "hard to learn, but [involved] almost no mental effort", writing as many as three books per year.
