Piper’s stories fall into two camps: stark space opera, such as Space Viking, or stories of cultural conflict or misunderstanding, such as Little Fuzzy or the Paratime stories.Ī running theme in his work is that history repeats itself past events will have direct and clear analogues in the future. He is best known for his extensive Terro-Human Future History series of stories and a shorter series of “Paratime” alternate history tales. He wrote many short stories and several novels. Henry Beam Piper (March 23, 1904-c. November 6, 1964) was an American science fiction author.
