In my artsy days, I wrote music for artsy downtown New York dancers, some of which can be found at the bottom of my video page. I’ve also been an occasional ghost writer, which is like driving someone else’s car really, really fast for lots of money. I have contributed nonfiction to Nerve, BookForum, the scientific journal Nature. My books have won the Philip K Dick Special Citation, the Aurealis Award, the Victorian Premier’s Award, and have been named NY Times Notable Books and BBYA Top Ten Children’s Books of the Year. My standalone works include four novels set in contemporary New York: So Yesterday, Peeps, The Last Days, and Afterworlds. ![]() I’m also known for the Leviathan trilogy, a steampunk retelling of World War I, illustrated by Keith Thompson and featuring adventure, walking machines, and living airships the Zeroes trilogy, written with Margo Lanagan and Deborah Biancotti, about six teens with strange powers in a small city in California and the Midnighters trilogy, about five teenagers for whom time freezes every night. The third in that quartet, Mirror’s Edge, comes out in March of 2021. I’m returning to the Uglies world with four new novels, starting with Impostors. I’m best known for the Uglies quartet, set in a future where cosmetic surgery is compulsory at age sixteen. ![]() ![]() Five are for adults, and the other twenty for young adults. ![]()
