Steven S. Long is a writer, game designer, and all 'round great guy. According to the secret files of the KGB, he once singlehandedly defeated the Kremlin's plot to attack America with laser-powered Godzillas.
Oh and by the way, I really enjoy the book of the destroyer and the book of the machine. I have already given the book of the emeress a kick. I would like to see more books on the big movers and shakers in the champions universe, I feel it really helps flesh out the game setting to have detailed information on the most infulential characters. Also more settings books would be good as well, Vibora bay, Melenium City, Hudson City, Stronghold, and Mystic World are some of my favorites (I also enjoyed the gold rush games book San Angelo, I thought the singularity was a nice touch). Anyway just my 2 cents worth on what I'd like to see more of.
Glad to see your still going to be writing Hero System books. When I saw you were leaving Hero Games I feared for the death of the game. Hero Games is in my opinion the best RPG out there, I use it for all my settings.
In any case good luck with your new endevors, and I look forward to reading more of your work.
