David Blixt

David Blixt is an author of historical fiction, writing novels that span the early Roman Empire (the Colossus series, his play Eve Of Ides) through Renaissance Italy (the Star-Cross’d series) past the Elizabethan era (Her Majesty’s Will) to the Victorian era with his series of Nellie Bly novels. In 2021 he announced the discovery of 11 unknown novels by Bly herself, and released them through his imprint, Sordelet Ink. Combining a love of theatre with a deep respect for the quirks and passions of history, David’s work is consistently described as ‘intricate’, ‘taut’, and ‘breathtaking’. As the Historical Novel Society says, “Be prepared to burn the midnight oil. It’s well worth it.”
