Priest's work often features Unreliable Narrator s, and thereby raises questions about Narrative , Truth , and the nature of Memory and Reality . A Film of his novel '' The Prestige '' is currently in production by director Christopher Nolan .
Comic Writer Jim Owsley changed his name to Christopher Priest in the mid-1990's, apparently unaware that there was already a successful writer by that name. In order to reduce confusion, the front page of Owsley/Priest's website points to both his and Priest's webpages with a clear delineation of which Priest is which.
His novels have won the BSFA Award (three times), the Arthur C. Clarke Award , and the World Fantasy Award .
He has also won the BSFA award for short fiction, and been nominated for Hugo Award s in the categories of Best Novel , Best Novella , Best Novelette , and Best Non-Fiction Book (this last for his ''The Book on the Edge of Forever'' (aka ''Last Deadloss Visions''), an exploration of the famously-unpublished '' Last Dangerous Visions '' anthology).
