Complete Short Fiction by Edward A. Byers (ed. Jerry eBooks, 2020)
Requirements: ePUB reader, 3.4mb
Overview: Edward A. Byers (1939 – 1989) had his first story in April 1979 Analog issue.
“Pathway” drew upon Ed’s interest in archeology, which has led him into volunteer field dig work. He received an MA in Psychology from Ball State University. Later he became a cryptographer with the United States Army. He has also been a newspaperman and a quality assurance engineer in the automotive industry, as well as holding other jobs before entering his full-time occupation: engineering writer in the military-industrial complex of the Washington, D.C., area.
His determination to become serious in writing firmed in 1977 at a writer’s workshop, where he met—and was encouraged by—science fiction writer Joe Hensley. From an early date, many of the famous writers in the field had captured his admiration, especially Philip Jose Farmer, Theodore Sturgeon, A. Merritt, and Edgar Pangborn.
Ed remains interested in experimental psychology, and is particularly fascinated by Man’s two-part brain structure with its complex memory and data-handling processes. Beyond this, human imagination and technological ingenuity in the field of space exploration is a special preoccupation. As for himself, Ed thinks one of his great thrills was working in a NASA research project to determine gas effects at high altitudes.
