Hello, world! I'm Brennan Smith-mechanical engineer by trade, storyteller by heart.

I grew up on the Atlantic coast of Canada with a restless imagination and a passion for science fiction. Somewhere along the way, I decided to take all that inspiration and write it down-and I haven't looked back since.

Today, I'm proud to say my stories have reached readers in six countries, and my debut novel, Iron Empire, is out now in paperback and ebook. Its sequel, Silver Reign, is deep in the works, and I can't wait to share it with you!

If you love bold sci-fi, big ideas, and underdog heroes, or just want to swap ideas and talk shop, send me a message-I'd love to hear from you! Thanks for stopping by and sharing this adventure with me.

(And yes, if you actually read all this, you get bonus points!)
