Lisa Smedman is the author of five Shadowrun novels: The Lucifer Deck,

The Maelstrom universe.
Lisa was one of seven authors selected by TSR/WOTC to write a short story and
novel for The Halls of Stormweather, an anthology set in the Advanced
Dungeons & Dragons Forgotten Realms universe. The character in that short
story is also featured in a novel, Heirs of Prophecy, which will be
released in the summer of 2002. Lisa is currently working on her third Forgotten
Realms project, the novel Extinction, due for publication in 2003.
Lisa has also had a number of short science fiction and fantasy stories
published in various magazines and anthologies, and has had two of her stage
plays produced. In 1993 she was a finalist in the Writers of the Future contest.
Lisa was one of the founders of Adventures Unlimited magazine. She has
designed a number of adventures and written short fiction for TSR's Ravenloft
and Dark Sun lines, and has designed gaming products for Star Wars, Indiana
Jones, Cyberpunk, Immortal, Shatterzone, Millennium's End, and Deadlands.
Lisa splits her week between working as an editor at a weekly newspaper and
writing fiction. When not working or gaming, she enjoys hiking and camping with
a women's outdoor club and collects stamps that illustrate the space race. She
lives in Vancouver with her partner, and spends much of her time catering to the
needs of their "blended family" of four cats.
