Pierce Brown


USA flag

Pierce Brown spent his childhood building forts and setting traps for his cousins in the woods of six states and the deserts of two. Graduating college in 2010, he fancied the idea of continuing his studies at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Unfortunately, he doesn't have a magical bone in his body. So while trying to make it as a writer, he worked as a manager of social media at a startup tech company, toiled as a peon on the Disney lot at ABC Studios, did his time as an NBC page, and gave sleep deprivation a new meaning during his stint as an aide on a U.S. Senate Campaign.
Now he lives in Los Angeles, where he scribbles tales of spaceships, wizards, ghouls, and most things old or bizarre.

Shakedown (2023)

Dream of the Falling Axe (2023)
(Grave of Empires)
Sam Sykes
"Sykes is a master at taking familiar elements of fantasy and stirring them to a wicked, wholly original churn."
thumb
Children of the Flying City (2022)
