- Mike Resnick PatZi 14:26
It was an honor to interview Mike Resnick for his 76th Birthday Interview. Mike is the winner of 5 Hugos (from a record 37 nominations), as well as dozens of other major awards all across the world.
In this interview we talk about his long career, how writing has given him the opportunity to travel and meet his fans, and about his work to help promote and mentor young writers.
BOOK 1: SOOTHSAYER: Readers of Santiago and Mike Resnick’s other exciting and evocative novels know that the galaxy’s Inner Frontier is filled with some mighty dangerous characters, such as the Iceman, the Mouse, Merlin, the Yankee Clipper, the Mock Turtle, and more.
But we’ll bet you didn’t know that the most dangerous person on the Frontier, perhaps the most dangerous human or alien who ever lived, is a frightened little six-year-old girl who wishes she was anyone else. Come meet her….an adventure similar in tone both to Santiago and to Josh Whedon’s TV series Firefly (and its follow-up movie Serenity).
BOOK 2: ORACLE: The Whistler is one of the deadliest killers on the Galaxy’s Inner Frontier. He wants her. The Iceman has dealt with her before. He doesn’t want any part of her, but he may have no choice. The Jade Queen thought she wanted her, before she found out what she was. Now she’s not so sure.
And who is she? She’s Penelope Bailey, still in her late teens, and still the deadliest being, human or alien, who ever lived. Come follow her strange and exciting story in the pages of Oracle, the second book of the Oracle Trilogy.
BOOK 3: PROPHET:Â Her name is Penelope Bailey, a young woman of normal appearance. Yet during her brief, turbulent life she has been known first as the Soothsayer, then the Oracle, and still later the Prophet. She looks like none of the three, nor indeed like anything out of the ordinary, yet she is the most dangerous and deadly being in the history of the Galaxy.j
