Ghost of a Chance

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.

Green's signature style—dry wit, cinematic action, and a relentless drive to upend genre tropes—has earned him a loyal following over the decades. His protagonists rarely fit the mold of the classic hero; they’re more likely to carry hidden weapons, emotional scars, and a deep mistrust of authority. The Secret Histories series, following the James Bond-meets-occult operative Eddie Drood, is a perfect example: espionage meets eldritch horror, wrapped in swagger and sarcasm.

Across more than 50 novels, Green has built a literary multiverse where urban fantasy, science fiction, and supernatural thrillers collide, often with blood on the walls and a knowing smirk. He doesn’t just tell stories—he breaks them open, letting all the strange and dangerous things spill out.

For readers who crave genre fiction with teeth—and maybe a trench coat or two stained with otherworldly ichor—his work remains a gateway to the delightfully bizarre.
