On today's show I talk to author Jack Womack. Originally from
Lexington, Kentucky, Jack moved to New York in 1977, and his first
novel Ambient was published a decade later. Ambient was
the first in his "Dryco" series which includes Terraplane,
Heathern and Elvissey, which he won the Philip K
Dick Award for. He's also written a number of other great books
like Random Acts of Senseless Violence and Let's Put
the Future Behind Us. Jack may or may not fall under the
rubric of "cyberpunk", depending on who you ask, but he has been
called William Gibson's favorite author.
