Simon R. Green

Simon R. Green writes like someone with one foot in the shadows and the other in a cosmic madhouse—blending noir, fantasy, and science fiction in ways that defy neat categorization. Whether he's guiding readers through the eerie alleyways of the Nightside, a city where it’s always 3 a.m. and miracles cost extra, or unleashing chaos in the multiverse with the Deathstalker saga, Green never settles for the expected. His stories are darkly funny, unabashedly strange, and full of sharp edges hidden beneath layers of magic and menace.
Born in Bradford-on-Avon, England, Green grew up with a fondness for the strange and supernatural. That affinity for the weird never faded—it just evolved. After studying modern English and American literature, he dove headfirst into writing, and hasn’t come up for air since. Early on, he worked behind the scenes in the entertainment industry, including writing a novelization for the Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves film, but it’s his original worlds where his voice truly comes alive.
