Kieron Holland is an Australian screenwriter and author with a passion for action adventure, fantasy, sci-fi and stories with a message. Growing up in the times of great authors like Gemmel, Feist, Pratchett, Weis and Hickman, G.R.R Martin, and Sapkowski, it is works like those from these great authors that inspired Kieron to embark on a career as a writer.

After graduating university with a Master’s degree, Kieron took his skills overseas to England where he lived and worked for many years. And from here he travelled extensively throughout Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and South America living the adventures he had grown up with in film and immersing himself in the history and wonder of these places. As such Kieron likes to write about places he has been, cultures he has experienced and in many cases things he has done to bring this authenticity and realism to his work.

Kieron has gone on to pen several award winning screenplays including ASTERION, which won the fantasy sci-fi division of the final draft big break, and BOXING DAY, which placed in the Nicholl fellowship. One of his feature sci-fi thrillers, ASCENDANT, was recently produced at Fox Studios in Sydney. This film was released cinemas throughout Australia and New Zealand on April 8th 2021, distributed by Maslow entertainment, and has just been released in the USA, Canada, UK and Ireland under the title RISING WOLF.

As Thick As Thieves is Kieron’s first published book and the beginning of an exciting new series and pathway in writing.
