But 87% of the population doesn't care: they're addicted to flashback, a drug that allows its users to re-experience the best moments of their lives. After ex-detective Nick Bottom's wife died in a car accident, he went under the flash to be with her; he's lost his job, his teenage son, and his livelihood as a result. Nick may be a lost soul but he's still a good cop, so he is hired to investigate the murder of a top governmental advisor's son. This flashback-addict becomes the one man who may be able to change the course of an entire nation turning away from the future to live in the past. A provocative novel set in a future that seems scarily possible, FLASHBACK proves why Dan Simmons is one of our most exciting and versatile writers.

Minneapolis. Simmons turns his researcher’s eye to a thrilling tale of supernatural suspense set on the American frontier. In Black Hills, Simmons seamlessly weaves the stories of a Paha Sapa, a young Sioux warrior, and General George Custer together, depicting a violent and tumultuous time in the history of Native Americans and the United States Army. Set in Sapa’s tribal homeland, we watch as the young warrior grows old amidst his dramatic visions, the explosions on the Mount Rushmore project, and the dedication of the Jefferson face by Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Simmons is also the author of Olympos, The Terror, and Drood. Simmons will sign copies of his book following the discussion. This event is free and open to the public.

Dan Simmons (born April 4, 1948) is an American science fiction and horror writer. He is the author of the Hyperion Cantos and the Ilium/Olympos cycles, among other works which span the science fiction, horror, and fantasy genres, sometimes within a single novel. Simmons' genre-intermingling Song of Kali (1985) won the World Fantasy Award. He also writes mysteries and thrillers, some of which feature the continuing character Joe Kurtz.
Born in Peoria, Illinois, Simmons received a B.A. in English from Wabash College in 1970 and, in 1971, a Masters in Education from Washington University in St. Louis.
He soon started writing short stories, although his career did not take off until 1982, when, through Harlan Ellison's help, his short story "The River Styx Runs Upstream" was published and awarded first prize in a Twilight Zone Magazine story competition, and he was taken on as a client by Ellison's agent, Richard Curtis. Simmons' first novel, Song of Kali, was released in 1985.
He worked in elementary education until 1989.  | |
