Karen Traviss is a British author who specializes in science fiction.

Her novels for science fiction franchises tend to be violently divisive, since [[WriterOnBoard her personal opinions on the franchise tend to bleed into her writing]], sometimes causing her books to go against [[ContinuitySnarl previously established canon]]. As such, she is often an infamous figure in science fiction circles, meaning it's best to be careful when speaking about her novels. She has an [[AuthorAppeal obsession with militarism and the military]], often setting up ProudWarriorRaceGuy as the sort of ideal man and [[WriterOnBoard making all others morally inferior to him for some reason]].
