Mick Franklin

Mick Franklin is a survival enthusiast and author of apocalyptic fiction.

He has travelled through more than 30 countries, studied survival skills and spent rather too much time wondering how civilisation might fall apart.

His books combine practical survival knowledge, international settings and characters pushed to their limits. Sometimes that means exploring the psychology of survival. Sometimes it means snipers, zombies, collapsing governments and people making catastrophically bad decisions.

Mick is particularly interested in what happens to people when the rules disappear — who they become, what they are willing to do, and where they draw the line.

When he's not writing about the end of the world, he's usually training, exploring, researching survival skills, drinking far too much coffee, or looking for the next interesting place to destroy.
