John Scalzi

For a writer who has spent so many books imagining the future, for the novelist John Scalzi there’s no time like the present.  The award-winning author of the celebrated Old Man’s War series joins B&N’s Jim Killen to talk about his new book Head On, which returns readers to the near-future America of his novel Lock In, which introduced FBI agent Chris Shayne and the fascinating world of the Haydens.  In this episode, John Scalzi talks about the ideas behind his latest novel, as well as his influences, his childhood, and why right now may be the greatest time yet to be a fan of science fiction.
