Bio

David Barnett is a journalist and writer based in the UK. He writes features for a variety of outlets, including the Guardian, Independent, BBC and more. As an author, he never quite knows what to write, so writes everything. He has written the Gideon Smith Victorian fantasy trilogy, several commercial fiction novels including the international bestseller Calling Major Tom and, most recently, The Handover, published in the US in Summer 2022 as Same Time, Same Place. He also writes comic books, and his work includes Books of Magic for DC, Southside Serpents for Archie, Eve Stranger and Punks Not Dead for IDW, and several strips for 2000 A.D.
