Daniel Suarez (born December 21, 1964)[1] is an American novelist, writing principally in the science fiction and techno-thriller genres. He initially published under the pseudonym Leinad Zeraus[2] (his name spelled backwards).
Career
Suarez career as an author began with a pair of techno-thriller novels. The first novel, Daemon, was self-published under his own company, Verdugo Press, in late 2006. It was later picked up by the major publishing house Dutton and re-released in January 2009. His follow-up book Freedom™ was released in January 2010. The Wall Street Journal reported that Walter F. Parkes, who produced the 1983 film WarGames, had optioned the film rights to Daemon with Paramount Pictures in 2009,[3] but the rights likely reverted to Suarez in December 2012.[4]
Suarez announced in November 2011 that he was writing his third novel, "which deals with autonomous drones and next-gen, anonymous warfare" (via his Google Plus account).[5][full citation needed] That novel, Kill Decision, was released on July 19, 2012.[citation needed] His next book, Influx, was released on February 20, 2014.[6] Influx won the 2015 Prometheus Award.[7] His fifth book, Change Agent, was released on April 18, 2017[8] and uses CRISPR as its theme.[9] His most recent novel, Critical Mass (2023), deals with the near future effects of asteroid mining and the privatization of space, and is the second part of a trilogy that started with Delta-v (2019).[10][full citation needed]
