Corban Addison is an American author who writes international literary thrillers focused on human rights and global justice. His standalone novels — A Walk Across the Sun, The Garden of Burning Sand, The Tears of Dark Water, and A Harvest of Thorns — each take on a different issue, from human trafficking to labor exploitation, set in locations from India to Mozambique to the open ocean.
Addison is also known as a co-writer of Wilbur Smith’s later Ballantyne novels, helping to continue the multi-generational African saga that Smith began in 1980. His non-fiction work, Wastelands: The True Story of Farm Country on Trial (2022), applies the same investigative instinct to American agricultural communities.
