Long Bio
Russell Brooks is an Amazon bestselling author of five thrillers—Pandora's Succession, Unsavory Delicacies, Chill Run, The Demeter Code and Jam Run. His next epic spy thriller, The Cadmus Imperative, will be released on November 30, 2026. It's been said that his writing is able to draw the reader in with powerful and poetic attention to detail, heart-pounding scenes of devastating hand-to-hand encounters which project the fear and fury right in front of the readers' eyes. Russell is the author of five books. An avid Renaissance Man, he learned to play the violin, the piano, the viola, the bassoon, and the electric bass guitar while in high school. Today, he prefers to stick with the violin which he performs at concerts and on special occasions. Brooks developed his talents as a runner in high school to become a national-level sprinter. This landed him a track and field scholarship to Indiana University in Bloomington, where he excelled in the 100m, 200m, and the 4x100m relay—winning several races and becoming an All-Big Ten. He also represented Canada at the World University Games and Team Quebec at the Jeux de la Francophonie. Russell attended Indiana University in Bloomington, IN, on a track and field scholarship. He graduated with a B.Sc. in Biology and a minor in Psychology.
