Overview: Barry Brookes Longyear (May 12, 1942 – May 6, 2025) was known best for his 1979 Hugo- and Nebula Award–winning novella “Enemy Mine”, which was subsequently made into a movie of the same name. The story is of an encounter between a human and an alien soldier whose races are at war. They are marooned together in space and have to overcome their mutual distrust in order to cooperate and survive. A greatly expanded version of the original novella as well as two novels completing the trilogy, The Tomorrow Testament and The Last Enemy, are gathered with additional materials into The Enemy Papers. The novella helped Longyear to win the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer in 1980. He was the first writer to win the Hugo, Nebula, and Campbell awards in the same year.
His trilogy “Infinity Hold”, “Kill All the Lawyers”, and “Keep the Law”, was released in 2002 in a single paperback volume titled Infinity Hold 3. His Jaggers & Shad mystery stories, featuring two detectives in the Artificial Beings Crimes Division (Devon Office), are set mostly in Exeter and the surrounding Devon countryside and villages. The first of the stories, The Good Kill, won Analog magazine’s AnLab award for Best Novella in 2006, and Murder in Parliament Street won the same award for 2007. The Hook won the 2021 Prometheus Award for the year’s best work of libertarian science fiction.
