Short Bio

Nicholas Rossis lives to write and does so from his cottage on the edge of a magical forest in Athens, Greece. When not composing epic fantasies or short sci-fi stories, he chats with fans and colleagues, writes blog posts, walks his dog, and enjoys the antics of his dog and toddler daughter, both of whom claim his lap as home.

His first children’s book, Runaway Smile, won the Gelett Burgess Children’s Book Award, among other distinctions. You can check it out for free on his blog. You can check out his second children’s book, Musiville, on his blog. He has also written the epic fantasy series, Pearseus. Many of his short stories have appeared in various collections and anthologies. He has published The Power of Six, Honest Fibs, You’re in for a Ride and Infinite Waters, which was voted as one of the best 50 Indie books of 2015.

What readers are saying about Nick’s fantasies:

“Most avid readers still have books from their childhood which they read over and over again. ‘Runaway Smile’ has joined the list.”
– Juliet Aharoni on Runaway Smile

“The Pearseus series has more sub plots and surprises than Tesla has volts”
– Erik Klingenberg

“From the very first sentence I realized I was not reading a book, I was going on an adventure.”
– Anne Peterson on Runaway Smile

“I really can’t think of another series that tied the world of fantasy and scifi together so well since Pern.”
– Joseph Long on Pearseus

“What I loved about these three books was the author’s ability to weave in ancient Greek myths,cultural and historic influences; it felt like ancient Greece, complete with warring city-states, but set on a far-away planet.”
– Catherine Mackay on Pearseus

”Each story is like watching an old episode of the Twilight Zone”
~ C. MacKay on You’re in for a Ride

“I found myself looking forward to coming home so I could dig into the next story. Each story pulls you in to its unique little universe and takes you on a ride where the tracks are hidden, and you can’t see the corners up ahead.”
– Nat Russo on Infinite Waters

“Philosophical ideas woven into science-fiction stories that read like classic stories by the masters, often with a delightful, thought-provoking and unexpected twist at the end.”
– Jamie Maltman on The Power of Six

“Weaving together two ostensibly very different escalating conflicts, Rossis reveals the fundamental similarities that underlie any decision to attack another large group, however unique the apparent causes of the choice… Within this frame of war as a blunt and horrible instrument, Rossis explores questions of personal morality: how my support for a cruel regime is excusable to reach a position where one might influence behavior from within? Is it moral to sacrifice your own people to save strangers? Is all conflict actually a failure to understand the other?”
– Dave Higgins on Pearseus: Mad Water
