W. Warren Wagar

A specialist in alternative society futures and an expert in the work of pioneering science fiction writer H.G.

His courses on the history of the future and World War III earned him the title of Distinguished Teaching Professor at Binghamton.

Wagar began writing science fiction in 1984, publishing nine stories in various magazines and anthologies.
