I was born in 1980 in Castro Valley, California, and I graduated from Harvard University with a degree in Classics, although I’ve managed to forget most of my Latin and all of my Greek. My father immigrated to the United States from Hong Kong, and my mother is Finnish-American. My essays, reviews, and nonfiction have been featured in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, Slate, Salon, The Rumpus, Gizmodo, Fast Company, Public Books, and The Daily Beast. Syndromes, an audio original collection of my short science fiction, is available from Recorded Books. On the short fiction side, my stories appear frequently in the magazine Analog Science Fiction and Fact and have been reprinted in Lightspeed and two editions of The Year’s Best Science Fiction. Campbell’s novella “Who Goes There?” (aka The Thing), which is being developed as a film by Blumhouse Productions. I also rediscovered Frozen Hell, the original version of John W.

My novels include the thrillers The Icon Thief, City of Exiles, and Eternal Empire, all published by Penguin.

Ron Hubbard, and the Golden Age of Science Fiction (Dey Street Books / HarperCollins), which was named one of the best books of 2018 by The Economist. I’m a Hugo and Locus Award finalist for the group biography Astounding: John W.
