Dave Bara
Dave Bara is one of the prominent authors of America who has written many successful novels in his writing career. All the novels written by him are based on the science fiction genre and have been quite successful all over the world. Dave was born and brought up in Seattle, United States. He considers himself lucky to have come into the world at the beginning of the space age. As a child, Dave grew up watching the Apollo and Germany space programs on his television. He was so much influenced by the research activities shown in those programs that he dreamed to become an astronaut after growing up. His interest in space programs led him to develop an interest in the science fiction genre and began watching the science fiction works on television. Initially, he used to watch dozens of the exciting episodes of the original shows of Star Trek, The Outer Limits, Lost in Space, as well as The Twilight Zone. Later, Dave shifted his interests in science fiction from television to books and began reading the popular novels of the genre. During his teenage years, Dave used to keep himself engrossed in the voracious reading of science fiction books of the famous authors like Arthur C. Clarke, Jerry Pournelle Joe Haldeman, Isaac Asimov, Gordon Dickson, Frederick Pohl, and Larry Niven. These authors had become his favorites. As his interest grew further, he decided to try his hand at writing his own science fiction novel. He continued doing so throughout the years of his college studies. Dave even chose a novel project as a part of his subjects for his undergraduate degree. Throughout these years, Dave gathered his life experiences and his love for the science fiction genre to develop story concepts that formed the base of his first novel as a writer, The Lightship Chronicles. It is clearly evident from his writings that Dave’s works are influenced by the successful works of the famous science fiction authors that he read in his growing years. The most notable novels from which Dave took reference include the Dune, Dorsai!, Tau Zero, the Foundation series, The Mote in God’s Eye, and The Forever War. Now being a full time writer of the science fiction novels, author Dave Bara looks forward to bring many interesting and exciting works based on the soaring adventures and heroic characters for his science fiction fans in the coming years.
