Nebula Award nominee, Jeffery A. Carver passed away on February 6th as a result of his quest for a lung transplant.
Jeffery was an incredible staple in the science fiction community and was the recipient of the Helicon Lifetime Achievement Award in 2022.
Jeffrey A. Carver was the author of eighteen science fiction novels, including—just published!—The Reefs of Time and Crucible of Time.
With this two-part novel, Carver returned to his signature series, The Chaos Chronicles. Equally popular are his Star Rigger stories, including the Nebula-finalist Eternity’s End—and Battlestar Galactica, a novelization of the critically acclaimed miniseries.
His work took him to the borderland of hard SF and space opera; his greatest love remained character, story, and a healthy sense of wonder.
Carver was a member of SFWA, and the highly regarded author cooperative Book View Café. He had taught writing in many settings, from educational television to Odyssey to MIT to his own workshops.

A native of Huron, Ohio, he lived with his family in the Boston area.
His funeral is set for March 14th and there will be a zoom option.
