Cory Doctorow is a Canadian-British author who writes science fiction focused on technology, surveillance, and digital rights. His novel Little Brother (2008) became a touchstone for young adult science fiction, telling the story of teenage hackers resisting government overreach after a terrorist attack. The series continued with Homeland (2013) and Attack Surface (2020), among other entries.
His more recent Martin Hench series, beginning with Red Team Blues (2023), follows a forensic accountant through the tech industry’s financial crimes. Doctorow’s standalone novels like Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom (2003), Walkaway (2017), and The Lost Cause (2023) explore post-scarcity economics, maker culture, and climate adaptation.
Beyond fiction, Doctorow is a prolific non-fiction writer and activist. Books like Chokepoint Capitalism (2022) and The Internet Con (2023) examine how corporations control creative markets and digital infrastructure. His concept of “enshittification” became widely discussed as a description of how platforms degrade over time.
