edit data

Justin Bello writes stories where imagination collides with danger, discovery, and transformation.

His fiction ranges from YA fantasy and dinosaur steampunk to science fiction, thrillers, and Southern Gothic tales. His work includes the The Calm Before the Storm series, The King’s Killer, Bayou Blood and Dragon Flame, and Predators and Prophets.

Justin is especially interested in unusual worlds, complicated characters, and the forces—emotional, political, and supernatural—that shape people’s choices. He also writes Vote the Voyage, a reader-directed serial in which audiences help decide what happens next.

When he isn’t writing, Justin enjoys reading, history, woodworking, martial arts, and exploring the outdoors.

Justin Bello added a status update: Your memories. Their entertainment. My new sci-fi thriller, The Mindshare Revolution, arrives December 7, 2026! Memory Corp. sells personal memories as luxury entertainment. A revolution exposes its secrets—but accidental memory sharing erodes people’s identities and threatens society’s collapse. Would you sell a precious memory to pay your bills?
