Max Reval

Max Reval is an Australian novelist. His books take the shape of thrillers, psychological suspense, mysteries and satires, and are written for readers who like a sentence to carry weight and a narrator they cannot entirely trust. He is preoccupied with control, institutions, and the quiet ways certainty comes apart.

He grew up in France, surrounded by books and reading without borders, from Tonino Benacquista and Umberto Eco to Haruki Murakami, and that appetite for many worlds at once has never left him. Among his contemporary touchstones are Kazuo Ishiguro and Mick Herron.

He now writes from Sydney, working across forms: essays, novellas, and novels both short and long. He is currently at work on his next novel. He is a member of the Australian Society of Authors and Writing NSW.
