Joel ShepherdJoel Shepherd, born 1974, Adelaide, South Australia is an Australian science fiction author.

His first two novels follow the adventures of Cassandra Kresnov, (who describes herself as an artificial human being), who has deserted from her Special Operations unit in the League and fled to the city of Tanusha on the Federation planet of Callay, posing as a journeyman cognitive software expert.
