Christopher Stasheff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christopher Stasheff (1944-present) is a science fiction author and fantasy author whose novels include The Warlock in Spite of Himself (1969) and Her Majesty's Wizard (1986). He has a PhD. in Theatre and teaches radio and television at Eastern New Mexico University in New Mexico.

Stasheff's stories could be categorized as "medieval fantasy"; they are filled with sorcery, monsters, castles, etc. Stasheff has written several series of novels featuring a wizard or warlock as the main character. However, in at least the Warlock series, the "fantasy" is actually psionic or esper powers: telepathy, telekinesis, teleportation, psychometry, etc., with time-travelling enemies, and the protagonist's best friend is a high-tech computer AI in a robotic equine body.

The central theme running through all of Stasheff's novels is the spreading of democracy (constitutional republic) as a form of government. The plot of almost every one of his novels is about a main character causing a change (whether a revolution or coup) in a society from monarchy, feudalism, or any other form of government to a more democratic and populist style of government.
