A former reporter and trade magazine editor, Ted Fauster writes in a blended style that hovers somewhere between fantasy and science fiction, but occasionally tosses in chunks of cyberpunk, steampunk and even horror. Ted enjoys photography, astronomy, tough and unique hikes, fishing in places no one has found, responsible four-wheeling, log-cabin camping with his family, walking old railroads and exploring paranormal locations. Friends say he never quite grew up, which is just fine by him!
