Karlheinz Steinmüller (born 4 November 1950 in Klingenthal) is a German physicist and science fiction author.[1] Together with his wife Angela Steinmüller he has written science fiction short stories and novels that depict human development on a cosmic scale, grounded in an analysis of social structures and mechanisms. Angela and Karlheinz Steinmüller were not only among the most widely read authors in the GDR, ranking at the top of a 1989 poll of most popular science fiction authors in the GDR,[2] but their works continue to be republished.
