“Brian Wood perfectly blends suspense and moral philosophy
with geo-political brushstrokes to create some of the freshest books
on the shelves.” - Complex Magazine

From the 1500-page future war epic DMZ, the ecological disaster series The Massive, the American crime drama Briggs Land, and the groundbreaking lo-fi dystopia Channel Zero, Wood’s demonstrated a 20-year track record of marrying thoughtful world-building and political commentary with compelling and diverse characters. 

His YA novels - Demo, Local, The New York Four, and Mara - have made YALSA and New York Public Library best-of lists.  His historical fiction - the Viking series Northlanders, the American Revolution-centered Rebels, and the Norse-Samurai mashup Sword Daughter - are benchmarks in the comic book industry. 

He’s written best-selling series for Marvel Comics, contributed story material to video games and novels in the Alien franchise, and his DMZ is currently an HBOMax miniseries.
