Who is he?

Michael Flynn is one of those SF authors that I don't know much about. I have only read one of his books, Firestar, and loved it. He is very good at identifying with today's youth. He's also one that can write a science fiction book and retain reality within his book, He neither shocked me or makd his story totally unbelievable after the first few chapters. He eases in to the unknown, and has a logical story.

Reviews of his books

Firestar

It is the dawn of the twenty-first century and America's schools are a mess. The public schools are useless--they breed apathy and ignorance. Politics have become the art of the quick fix. (Aren't they already??) Only one woman has the money and vision to change everything. Mariesa Van Huyten is an heir to one of the great American fortunes. She founds Mentor Academy--an educational subsidary.She subcontracts public schools to raise a better generation. But her dreams don't even begin here. She founds her own private space program, planning for the first orbital power station. Her plans go through horrible delays and setbacks--Mariesa herself is threatened. However, her devotion and dreams will keep your eyes skyward.
