Howard Weinstein

After decades writing STAR TREK and other science fiction stories, New York Times bestselling author Howard Weinstein turns to historical/Western fiction with his Western Fictioneers Peacemaker Award-winning novel GALLOWAY'S GAMBLE -- and now the long-awaited sequel, GALLOWAY'S GAMBLE 2: LUCIFER & THE GREAT BALTIMORE BRAWL. Praise from True West magazine: “Anyone who loves Charles Portis's style of writing in True Grit, or readers ready [for] a great yarn…look no farther than GALLOWAY'S GAMBLE.” Fellow STAR TREK author Dayton Ward calls it “a rich, layered story where the characters leap off the page… Extensive research infuses his tale with authenticity." Howard’s nearly 50 years of writing credits include seven STAR TREK novels; 65 STAR TREK comic books; “The Pirates of Orion” animated STAR TREK episode; story-development assistance on STAR TREK IV: THE VOYAGE HOME; a biography of Mickey Mantle; and PUPPY KISSES ARE GOOD FOR THE SOUL, a charming account of life with legendary Welsh Corgi Mail Order Annie.
