Joe Haldeman is a Vietnam veteran, whose novel "The Forever War", written a few years after his discharge and influenced by his combat experiences, won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards as best novel of the year. Years later, his sequel to that memorable novel, "Forever Peace", also won the Hugo and Nebula Awards and was cited by "Publishers Weekly" as one of the Best Books of the Year.

When not writing prize-winning and best-selling novels, Jane Yolen is the award-winning author of more than two hundred books, including fantasy, science fiction, and poetry, which earned her the moniker the American Hans Christian Andersen. Her titles include "Odysseus in the Serpent Maze", "The Dragon's Boy", and "The Girl Who Loved the Wind". Jane Yolen and her husband divide their time between a farmhouse in Massachusetts and a house in Scotland.
