From the Author:

We're Sharon Lee and Steve Miller, and we've been writing science fiction and fantasy novels and short stories together for around 20 years, including the Liaden Universe� science fiction series and the Kinzel fantasy stories. We'd like to thank you for taking the time to read the fine print here on the Amazon.com page, especially if you've never read any of our books or stories before.

If you aren't familiar with our work, we write character-oriented fiction, usually with a lot of action and adventure. Honor plays an important part in our work, and in the case of The Tomorrow Log, we wanted a chance to work with what happens when a well-established lone thief is put in circumstances where he'll have to work with others to thrive � or even to survive.

Readers of the Liaden Universe� won't be surprised to find a blade or two in evidence, though we think you'll quickly see that Gem ser'Edreth is not a simple Val Con clone, nor will you find anyone quite like The Witness for the Telios in our other work.

So please enjoy The Tomorrow Log � we hope you'll come back here to let others know you did.

Thanks!

Sharon Lee and Steve Miller

Sharon has also seen a mystery novel, Barnburner, published by Embiid in electronic and SRM Publisher, Ltd in paper.

I Dare has been an Amazon.com and a Locus magazine bestseller. Pilots Choice (including novels Local Custom and Scout's Progress) was a finalist for the Pearl Award. Local Custom took second place in the 2002 Prism Awards for best futuristic romance, while Scout's Progress took first place.
