Martin is the author that penned the Hyperion Cantos. He’s a charismatic individual from an amazing science fiction series by Dan Simmons. I love Martin for his foul-mouth, his wit, intelligence, insight, his enthusiasm for libation and women, and because he speaks his mind in no uncertain terms. The persona of Martin E. Silenus writes in three venues, Action, Life’s like That, and Sci-Fi. Martin has been fortunate enough to have enjoyed success in the corporate business world with his writings and to have attended the teachings of award winning novelist Guy Vanderhaeghe, OC, SOM.
