Ryan Schow writes fast-paced mystery and post-apocalyptic fiction, with 54 books published since 2017. His Sadie Gray FBI Mystery series is his most prolific, running to eleven books so far, while the Atlas Hargrove series follows an action-driven thriller formula with titles set across international locations from Odessa to Cape Town. His earlier post-apocalyptic work includes The Last War, The Age of Embers, and Dark Days of the After, all of which run five or more books each.

The Abandon series picks up a similar end-of-the-world thread, and the Sunset on America books continue in that vein. Schow also has the Swann series, a four-book run from his earliest publishing years. The Population Zero Trilogy rounds out the catalog with a tighter three-book arc. Readers who like prolific authors with deep backlists in thriller and survival fiction will find plenty to work through here.
