Cover to Cover #45: Robert J. Sawyer

Robert J. Sawyer
Rob Sawer, possibly one of the most heavily grounded in "science" authors of science fiction we've ever talked to, joins us to discuss his latest series of books dealing with Neanderthals and Human evolution. The first book, Hominids, is out in paperback and the next book, Humans, will be out in hard cover very soon. Following quickly on their heels will be Hybrids, the conclusion (?) of the series.

From what we leaned during this interview, these books will be fascinating reads. Rob has won many awards, including both the Nebula and Hugo, for his many works, for which you can read sample chapters off his website at www.sfwriter.com.
