Robert Corvus is one of Germany’s most active science fiction authors.
He is a member of the Perry Rhodan team, has contributed four novels to the BattleTech military SF franchise, and publishes his novels with Piper.
They are about a planet living in eternal night; about a fleet of starships carrying the last free humans through the void between the stars; about a widower who wants to build a bridge to the star that cost his great love his life. His short stories deal with artificial intelligence creating art, a future Cologne and a hermetically sealed Europe.
