Order of Jack McDevitt Books
Jack McDevitt is an American science fiction author best known as the author and creator of the Alex Benedict series and the Priscilla Hutchins series.
McDevitt was nominated for numerous Nebula Awards and won the award in 2006 for Seeker. He is also a Robert A. Heinlein Award winner. McDevitt won a short story contest as a freshman at La Salle University, but moved away from writing after that. He received a master’s degree in literature from Wesleyan University in 1971 and in 1980 his wife encouraged him to try writing again. The rest, as they say, is history.
