Eric Lahti grew up looking for UFOs and buried treasure in northwest New Mexico. Unfortunately, he never found either of them. Or maybe he did and he's just not telling. He did find some good stories to tell at parties about lights in the skies and gold in the ground, though. When he's not writing, he's programming and practicing his Kenpo. He's also an active blogger, waxing philosophical about a range of topics from writing, to martial arts, to politics and religion. Frankly, he fancies himself something of a Renaissance geek about a wide variety of things. In addition to his current books, Better Than Dead is going to be published relatively soon-ish.

He also runs a blog at Eric Lahti

Welcome To The Slophouse

A couple of weeks ago I was digging through job postings when I came across an oddball. There was a company that wanted people who could write code. Okay, no worries, that’s normal. In any language and they didn’t care which one. That’s a bit strange. Actually, it’s extremely strange. Companies that hire software developers usually have products they want supported and it’s exceedingly rare wh

“The guys are shifting back and forth now, nervous in the face of the unknown. When you’re facing a numerically superior force the best way to win is to get them off balance. That’s the first rule of asymmetric warfare; never fight on the enemy’s terms. Mean”
