À propos de l?auteur
Since 1990, Ian R MacLeod has sold about thirty short stories to most of the main SF markets, including Fantasy and SF, Amazing, Interzone, Asimov's, Weird Tales, Pulphouse, Pirate Writings, etc. along with a few articles and poems, many of which have been repeatedly anthologised. His first sale, 1/72nd Scale, was nominated for the Nebula Award for the year's best novella. He also sold separate stories to the Year's Best SF, Fantasy and Horror in his first full year of being published. Since then, he has continued to make almost annual appearances in the Year's Best SF, and about every other year in the Best Horror. He has also been nominated for the British Science Fiction Association Award, and the James Tiptree Award. His work has been translated into many languages, including Italian, French, Japanese, Polish and German. His alternative history novella entitled The Summer Isles won the World Fantasy Award. He lives in Birmingham with his wife and daughter.
