Bradford Swain Linaweaver (born September 1, 1952) is a Nebula Award finalist for the novella version, and Prometheus Award winner for the novel version of Moon of Ice. His other novels include Sliders (based on the television series) and The Land Beyond Summer. Collaborative novels are four best-selling Doom novels with Dafydd ab Hugh, three Battlestar Galactica novels with Richard Hatch, and Anarquia with J. Kent Hastings, from James A. Rock & Co., Publishers: Sense of Wonder Press. Linaweaver has sold over eighty short stories, and three hundred articles, as well as various scripts and original stories that have been produced as audio dramas and low budget movies.
Linaweaver shares a second Prometheus Award with Ed Kramer for co-editing Free Space, a major libertarian science fiction anthology from TOR books. His most recent book is Worlds of Tomorrow with Forrest J Ackerman for Collectors Press. Linaweaver is also now publishing the new pop culture magazine Mondo Cult, edited by Jessie Lilley.
The late President Ronald Reagan praised an early article he wrote making the case for capitalism against socialism. Reagan summed up his commentary on Linaweaver with a line, "How right he is!" The radio broadcast is included in the Reagan CD set, In His Own Voice, and in the book, Stories in His Own Hand: The Everyday Wisdom of Ronald Reagan. Linaweaver has since maintained his conservative and libertarian political views.
He is the co-conspirator of the Big Lizards blog with ab Hugh and his wife Sachi. Linaweaver has since turned against the Iraq war. [1]
