 Author of the conspiracy thriller ‘The Shape of Rain’, Nick Hirst has just completed his second novel - 'Second Spider from the Right' - a dystopian geopolitical thriller with a whodunit element.

The narrative weaves multiple technological and political predictions for the next 60 years into the story of a lone pilot stumbling on a global conspiracy.

I have been a full-time novelist since 1996 and ghostwriter since 2010, with 35 novels of my own, including the Maldene series which clocks in at 13 novels and 5.2 million words. I hold a Masters degree in Physics, which often plays well with my creation of other worlds, but crossed with a poetic soul and unique descriptive voice. The result in a penchant for alien vistas, deeply woven plots, and worlds where magic freely flows but still obeys its own consistent laws. I’m a bit of a workaholic when it comes to my novels; putting in an 8-10 hour writing session is not at all uncommon.


I love crossing genres. For instance, Maldene starts off looking like high fantasy, but later in the series (Maldene II, now out in ebook under my own release) mixes in some Sci-Fi elements. Other books of mine involve other mixes of Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and others. Let other people write the pure genres, I love mixing it up.
