Dixon Reuel is the author of the Blood Brute Series, a complete six-book queer dark fantasy set in the ruins of a world ended by zombie plague — where vampires survive, covens fracture, and love turns out to be the most dangerous thing of all.
Writing from Dublin, Ireland, Dixon's work has been recognised by the Wishing List Indie Book Awards and the Page Turner Awards, and has received editorial reviews from NetGalley and Kirkus. A background in Early Irish language, mythology, and poetry — including a runner-up place in a national Irish poetry award and a writing residency at the Tyrone Guthrie Centre, supported by the Arts Council of Ireland — brings a particular attention to language and landscape to the Blood Brute world.

Literally yesterday I sent my fourth SciFi short story off to my editor - I expect it to be out for submission early next year.

After achieving that goal for December, I am now back to finishing the final draft of my debut novel, RISE OF ONE - which is about vampires trying to survive a zombie apocalypse - releasing early next year, too!(less)

Set 20 years after Strain of Four, Myth of Five continues the adventures of Rise, the world's only living zombie-bitten vampire. Facing seclusion for the rest of eternity, a powerful stranger--from so very long ago--nonchalantly enters the sacred Owl Court, upending Rise's life.

“As her heart jumped at the alarm and she instinctively snatched up her own backpack from the beside her desk, Meliss regretted not having Lauren’s bag to hand. She thought of the clothes stashed away that would still smell of her, the little terrarium that Lauren had painstakingly built inside an old-fashioned light bulb.”
― Dixon Reuel

“Rina balanced a small accounting tablet on her lap while The Galgorum burrowed. For three hours the cutters squealed into glacial ice. Conrad’s breath hawed and hawed over the comlink that connected their suits, loud in Rina’s helmet until she wanted to crawl back up to the surface.”
― Dixon Reuel, Harmemoric Asylum

“​Iskar laughed again, although it wasn’t unkind. “Oh Cypriot, the doc tells you you’re riddled with every STD under the sun, and it’s the lice that annoys you!”
― Dixon Reuel, Ebb of Three

“They wore full-coverage raid suits, thick-filtered helmets, their gloves embellished with a ridge of claw-like, upturned hooks along each knuckle, all emblazoned with the logo of Atlas—Greek Titan of Endurance—shouldering the world in a neon blue silhouette.”

“Justice is not natural among people, but the struggle for justice is the most noble act in society. Because justice may not be possible, but as it’s the way toward the desired society for each one to live in, that’s why its struggle is noble and regard as the highest act.”
