Michaelbrent Collings has been writing horror, thriller, and fantasy fiction at a prolific pace since 2009. His Colony series — seven books following survivors of a mysterious apocalypse — is his most extended work, running from Genesis (2013) through Reckoning (2015). Outside the series, his 25 standalone novels cover a wide range of horror and thriller scenarios, from haunted houses (The Haunted, Apparition) to psychological terror (The Stranger Inside, Twisted) to science fiction horror (The Deep, Light-Years From Home).
Beyond horror, Collings has written the Billy Jones fantasy trilogy for younger readers, the Sword Chronicles epic fantasy series, the Grimmworld fairy tale horror books, and children’s stories like How Flowers Came to Be. He also holds a law degree and has written non-fiction on construction law and martial arts instruction. His short story collections — Though Darkness Falls, Darkling Smiles, and Future Tense — gather his shorter fiction across horror and science fiction.
