John Ringo

John Ringo es un reconocido autor estadounidense, conocido principalmente por su trabajo en los géneros de ciencia ficción, fantasía, ficción militar, thriller tecnológico y thriller político. Ha escrito varias novelas que se convirtieron en bestsellers del New York Times, incluyendo la serie Posleen War, Empire of Man series, Council Wars series, y Paladin of Shadows series. La escritura de Ringo se ve influenciada significativamente por sus propias experiencias de vida, particularmente su servicio militar.

Ringo prestó servicio en el Ejército de los EE. UU. durante cuatro años, alcanzando el rango de especialista. Después del servicio activo, se desempeñó por dos años adicionales en la Guardia Nacional de Florida. Esta experiencia militar ha tenido una gran influencia en su escritura, brindando autenticidad y profundidad a sus novelas militares y de ciencia ficción. Después de su servicio militar, Ringo asistió a la universidad y obtuvo un Associate's degree en Biología Marina. Sin embargo, encontró que este campo no pagaba bien, y se dedicó a escribir ciencia ficción en su lugar.

Además de su experiencia militar, Ringo tuvo una infancia nómada que lo expuso a una gran variedad de culturas y experiencias. Visitó 23 países extranjeros y asistió a 14 diferentes escuelas antes de graduarse. Esta temprana exposición a diversas culturas e ideas también ha tenido un gran impacto en su escritura, dándole una perspectiva rica y matizada.

La primera novela de Ringo, "A Hymn Before Battle," fue publicada en 1999 y resultó ser un éxito. Desde entonces, ha sido un autor a tiempo completo, escribiendo en una variedad de géneros, incluyendo ciencia ficción, ficción militar y fantasía. Es conocido por su versatilidad y su disposición a experimentar con diferentes estilos y temas. Por ejemplo, su novela "Ghost" es un thriller tecnológico con elementos pornográficos, mientras que "Princess of Wands" es una madre de soccer cristiana que lucha contra los demonios a través del poder de Dios.

A pesar de su éxito, Ringo sigue siendo humilde y accesible. Tiene un sentido del humor y una actitud juguetona, como se evidencia en su respuesta cuando se le pidió que describiera su escritura: "Soy un autor profesional de... Bueno, solía decir 'ciencia ficción.' Luego vino 'There Will Be Dragons', que es sf con un claro giro hacia la fantasía. Luego vino 'Ghost', que es un thriller tecnológico mezclado con pornografía. Luego vino 'Princess of Wands', una madre de soccer cristiana que lucha contra los demonios a través del poder de Dios. ¿Quién sabe qué sigue? Libros para niños? (De hecho, tengo esa idea mapeada. Verá, hay esta niña que es criada por delfines... ¿Cree que estoy bromeando, verdad?) Esta actitud juguetona minimiza la profundidad y complejidad de su escritura, la cual continúa cautivando y atrayendo a lectores de todo el mundo.
