Happy 66th birthday to National Book Award finalist Micheal Cadnum

All of us at Tachyon wish Michael Cadnum a happy birthday.

The author of more than thirty books for adults, teens and children, Cadnum is best know for his adult suspense fiction and young adult fiction based on myths, legends, and historical figures. His books include THE BOOK OF THE
LION (a National Book Award finalist, a Los Angeles Times Book Award finalist, and an Owl Creek Book Award winner), IN A DARK WOOD, THE LEOPARD SWORD, SEIZE THE STORM, and CAN’T CATCH ME AND OTHER TWICE-TOLD TALES. Cadnum is a recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship and the Helen Bullis Prize for his poetry.

“Cadnum knocks us off our platitudes and sends us sliding elsewhere…and we are smoothly swept into a new field of perception.”
—Georgia Review
