The Profile

The DeBaser reviews under the name Ian McDonald refer to two verifiable, distinct figures: a musician who is described as a co-founder of King Crimson and the author Ian McDonald (born 1960) known for science-fiction works such as the Everness series and Luna: New Moon.

From the reviews: the musician's solo album 'Drivers Eyes' features contributors mentioned by name (Peter Sinfield, John Wetton, Michael Giles, Steve Hackett, Peter Frampton, Ian Lloyd, Steve Holley). The author Ian McDonald (b.1960) is the creator of the Everness series (Planesrunner; protagonist Everett Singh; concepts such as the Infundibulum and the Panoply) and the Luna trilogy (Luna: New Moon; characters such as Adriana Corta; plot elements like helium-3 and lunar economic dynasties).

DeBaser hosts a handful of reviews under the name Ian McDonald covering two distinct careers: a solo album by the King Crimson co-founder and several science-fiction novels by the author Ian McDonald. The album Drivers Eyes is reviewed positively for performances and production; the novels receive mixed reactions (Be My Enemy scored lower, Luna: New Moon scored well). Reviews highlight collaborators on the album and recurring themes/characters in the novels.
