關於作者
Malcolm Jameson, born Malcolm Jamieson, was an American science fiction and fantasy author best known for his naval adventure stories and space opera narratives, penned during the mid-20th century. Born in 1891 and writing under the pseudonym Malcolm Jameson, his literary career was a testament to his resilience, as he started writing professionally after being diagnosed with cancer. Before becoming a full-time writer, Jameson was a navy officer, a profession that deeply influenced his storytelling and choice of characters, such as the popular Bullard series—captivating tales of Admiral Bullard navigating the complexities of space warfare and command. His contributions to the genre are encapsulated in 'The Collected Works of Malcolm Jameson,' comprising his short stories and novels that exemplify his distinct literary style, characterized by a blend of technical realism drawn from his naval experience and the expansive imagination typical of early speculative fiction. Jameson's works were contemporaneous with those of his peers, such as Heinlein and Asimov, and his writings retain a place in the annals of science fiction for their unique combination of authentic military tone and speculative flare. Tragically, his promising literary journey was cut short; Jameson succumbed to cancer in 1945, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire enthusiasts of naval-themed science fiction.
