We are excited to present this WormholeRiders Roundtable, part of the WHR YouDecide Series, Featuring interviews of several Science Fiction and Fantasy writers. Many thanks to BHC Press<\/a> for this WormholeRiders’ exclusive interview with one of our favorites, Gary Morgenstein<\/a>!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Western cultures were impacted by circumstances that made people regard society, and humanity\u2019s place in it, in a whole new way. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The world watched as revolutions and world wars wasted lives and how new, innovative governments that promised utopias would turn into oppressive and murderous regimes. The spread of new ideas, like evolution, caused people to ponder whether survival of the fittest was the right worldview, and whether people were expendable. Out of this centralized government and secularist agar grew a new genre of storytelling. That genre is known as dystopian literature.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
