RODGERS, Alan

RODGERS, Alan
(1959 -)
   US writer who began publishing work of genre interest with"The Boy who Came Back from the Dead" inMasques \#2 (anth 1987) ed J.N. Williamson (1932-), a strongly moving fantasy tale later assembled with other work in New Life for the Dead (coll 1991). AR's first novel, Blood of the Children (1989), is horror, but his second, Fire (1990), combines sf and horror in a NEAR FUTURE story in which a fundamentalist US President threatens a nuclear attack against the USSR while at the sametime a lab explosion unleashes a virus which raises the dead and a telepathic entity which takes on the aspect of the Beast of Revelation. The plot then thickens pyrotechnically. Night (1991) is horror.
