Bunker<\/strong>, the list of authors include:<\/p>\n

William Barnes<\/strong>
\n Daniel Biro<\/strong>
\n James Bosworth<\/strong>
\n Nils Gilman<\/strong>
\n Jesse Goldhammer<\/strong>
\n Daniel S. Gressang<\/strong>
\n Vinay Gupta<\/strong>
\n Paul Hilder<\/strong>

\n Mark Safranski<\/strong>

\n Peter Taylor<\/strong>
\n Hardin Tibbs<\/strong>
\n Andrew Trabulsi<\/strong>
\n Shlok Vaidya<\/strong>

As editor, Andrew Trabulsi<\/strong> did a heroic job herding cats in editing this substantial volume and keeping all of the authors and project on track and on time. Warlords, inc.<\/strong> is available May 12 on Amazon and will be at Barnes & Noble<\/a><\/strong> and Target<\/a><\/strong> as well. Excited and proud to be part of this endeavor!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
