Philip José Farmer was an award-winning science fiction and fantasy novelist, best known for his sequences of novels, especially the World of Tiers (1965–93) which worked with the idea of parallel universes, and Riverworld (1971–83) series. He is noted for the pioneering use of sexual and religious themes in his work, his fascination for, and reworking of, the lore of celebrated pulp heroes, and occasional tongue-in-cheek pseudonymous works written as if by fictional characters. His works include: To Your Scattered Bodies Go, The Lovers, The Dark Design, The Magic Labyrinth, The Gods of Riverworld, The Suicide Express, Venus on the Half-Shell, The Adventure of the Peerless Peer, The Maker of the Universes, The Gates Creation, Gates of Creation, A Private Universe, Behind the Gates of Terra, the Wold Newton Family series, The Dungeon series, The Other Log of Phileas Fogg, and Doc Savage: His Apocalyptic Life. He has often been compared to Ray Bradbury for broadening the classic limits of sci-fi. He's won three Hugo Awards, The World Fantasy Award, The Damon Knight Grand Master Award, and others .......
