Russell Luyt grew up in South Africa before moving to the United Kingdom, where he built a career in social psychology and academic writing. Now based in Paris, he has swapped lecture halls for quiet cafés, bringing his eye for detail and understanding of human behaviour to the world of fiction. He enjoys exploring stories that speak to both the heart and the mind, blending emotional intensity with social insight.

The Midnight Factory is the first book in The Shimmerfall Trilogy—a series exploring addiction, complicity, and fragile human connection in worlds pushed to their breaking point.
