                            TERRY PRATCHETT (GOH)

Who is Terry Pratchett? Pratchett is one of the most popular fantasy authors
of recent years. His books appear on the bestseller lists with such regularity 
that further advertisement is totally superfluous. On his past history 
perhaps there will be more in the souvenir book. I am confining myself here 
to the information he relates about himself in his books. Pratchett was born 
in Buckinghamshire. He began his career as a journalist. Presently he lives 
in Somerset together with his wife Lyn and his daughter Rhianna.

In the Netherlands, Pratchett's works are published by Het Spectrum. So, 
The Colour of Magic, The Light Fantastic, Mort, and Equal Rites have already 
appeared and we can expect still more from Het Spectrum. Another Dutch 
publisher, Meulenhoff, has published a `double' with Pratchett's Strata and 
The Dark Side of the Sun. Great Britain has seen the publication of very 
recent works, like the latest Discworld book, Small Gods, and a reprint of 
his first novel, The Carpet People, and the British can look out for 
Lords and Ladies, which might come out just before Hillcon.

Although Pratchett has written other books, he owes his popularity to the 
so-called Discworld series. The stories themselves take place on a flat 
earth supported by four elephants, who themselves stand upon a gigantic 
turtle. In the books we get to know the most versatile characters you could 
imagine. So the first book of the series relates the adventures of a bungling
sorcerer and a naive tourist, complete with a meandering, intelligent 
travelling trunk charmingly named `Luggage'. The series has many, more 
fascinating characters: one of the most striking regulars is Death. And the 
black humour that results...

His `Truckers' trilogy is also hugely popular. Originally intended for 
children, enough adults read the books that all three reached the top ten on 
bestseller lists. For lists concentrating on children's books the trilogy 
even took the first three places! The trilogy has appeared in other media: 
the popularity was so great that one of Brittain's commercial stations 
broadcasted it as an animated series.

His work aims for humour and is distinguished by hilarious characters and 
plot. Dialogue is his strong point, with enough one-liners to fill an entire 
tear-off calendar.

Still, he doesn't owe his popularity just to his books. He has a charismatic
presence at his command, clearly perceptable above all during panel 
discussions. During ConFiction, the 1990 World SF Convention in The Hague, 
he spoke about the creation of Discworld. The audience listended attentively 
when he revealed how he got the idea for Moving Pictures. Pratchett's 
attendance at Hillcon will really liven up the scene. So, come to Hillcon!

                            TAD WILLIAMS (GOH)

In the Netherlands, the reputation of Tad Williams is not yet established,
but in the United States, he belongs to a small, select group of writers, for
whom every new book goes straight to the bestsellers' lists. His most recent 
books have also spent months on the SF/Fantasy bestsellers' lists from Locus,
Waldenbooks, B. Dalton and Publisher's Weekly. And not undeservedly, either.
Tad Williams is an excellent writer who doesn't recoil from epic High Fantasy
 la Tolkien, and who can distinguish himself from the grey masses with a 
healthy measure of extra class, inspiration and emotion.

And now The Dragonbone Chair, the first book of the Memory, Sorrow and Thorn-
trilogy, has come out in a Dutch edition. Williams crossed the threshhold 
from promising new writer to established author in the US with this book. 
However, the result would have been little different had this book not 
appeared. After Tailchaser's Song, Williams' intention was to write a 
historical novel set in ancient Egypt. When he showed the first chapters to 
his publisher, the reaction was none too positive. He was asked if he perhaps
had something else in the works; he presented an idea for a fantasy-trilogy
of truly epic proportions. The rest is history. The first and second books 
both became bestsellers in the States and fans are awaiting with anticipation
the third book, To Green Angel Tower, due out at the end of this year. 
Anticipation is also great in the Netherlands, in any case for the publisher,
which has therefore put Max Schuchart to the task of translation. Schuchart 
is known for his award-winning translation of The Lord of the Rings.

After this book, it will be time for `something completely different.' Tad 
Williams has revealed in various interviews that his interests go beyond just
traditional high fantasy. Besides having written a young adult novel in 
collaboration with Nina Kiriki Hoffman, there is an SF-novel on the horizon 
and also plans for multimedia projects and comic strips. So, whoever wants to
know further details will have to ask Tad himself directly, and Hillcon III 
will offer plenty of opportunity for that.

                             PETER SCHAAP (GOH)

The debut of Peter Schaap, in 1987, was very much a surprise to all of us. 
People who did know of him, remembered a musician, songwriter and singer who 
had once hit the charts with Adem mijn adem (Breathe my breath).
But editors and readers had never heard of him as an author of Fantasy. Yet 
there it was: "De schrijvenaar van Thyll", a story of high magic, a force 
that threatens the world, and a protagonist who wins by turning his weakness 
to account. 
Since "De schrijvenaar van Thyll" he has delighted his public with "Ondeeds 
de Loutere" and his best-selling `Wolver'-trilogy. This fall, probably at 
Hillcon, his latest novel will appear: "De bruiden van Tyobar".

Peter Schaap owes, of course, to the established Fantasy tradition, but his 
characterizations and his language are uniquely his own and his plots are 
made by his characters, not the other way round.
From the first he showed an imaginative turn of phrase, and some of his 
titles and names are real jewels. In "De Wolver" he even found a workable 
term for female dwarves, something even Tolkien did not get around to. His 
dwarves, incidently, male and female, are completely unlike any we had 
experienced before. They are earthy and sturdy, as one would expect, but the 
ardour of their amorous pursuits is something else.
Curious social habits in general seem to become a speciality of this author;
some of the situations in "Wolversdochter" could challenge the better Jack 
Vance novels.

Just as curious as dwarvish habits you might qualify one of Peters great 
hobbies: visiting cemeteries (There are a few in Den Haag still due, Peter; 
remember?). Or the construction of a extensive fantastic miniature city in 
his home. That home is in the North, surrounded by water, wide flat fields 
and pastures and the high, windblown skies. 
But when he can be enticed away to the frivolous, urban West, Peter likes to
visit SF&F-gatherings. Sometimes he brings his guitar, at other times his 
brother, but at all times he is a valued and charming guest, as I am sure he 
will prove when you meet him at Hillcon III.

Jo went to work for Holland SF. He      after serving on Hagacon II and 
contributed in-depth interviews,        contributed reviews and articles 
cutting reviews and great articles      that were passionate as well as 
on literature, the universe and         playful, in passing revolutionising
everything, some consisting almost      the zine's exterior and interior 
entirely of footnotes.                  design.                            

Jo and Johan hit it off immediately when they met. Soon, baffled readers were
confronted with a new fanzine, the Jo-Jo Intersection, the famous blue pages 
in the heart of Holland SF, where both half-editors unloaded all the shaggy 
jokes, puns and punches below the belt that Holland SF wouldn't let them 
publish.

Since then they have gone from very, very bad tot very much worse. They run
the King Kong Story contest, publish the Jo-Jo Intersection and have worked 
on Hillcon I, ConFiction and Hillcon II.

Yet they seem so different. Jo is       Yet they seem so different. Johan

literature for a living and likes       organ, the flute and the recorder, is

and a stimulating sitting-talking-      heraldry, fencing, politics, ballet

                                        editions of Hamlet.                  

On the other hand, they are much alike. They both seem to run on coffee, they
love trying out new computer systems, they are both absolutely unable to 
stick to deadlines and, as you will find when you listen to their (probably
joint) speeches, their English has to be heard to be believed. Working with 
them both and just being in their company has been an exciting experience, as
well as lots of fun. I wish you the same with these superb super-fans.

The hotel information is coded as follows: the first digit indicates single
or twin room, the lettercode indicates the arrival day, and the last digit 
indicates the number of hotel nights. So '1-FR-3' stands for a single room 
from Friday through Sunday night.
