Robin Wickens writes atmospheric British folklore, cosy mysteries, historical fiction and imaginative long-form storytelling inspired by the landscapes, legends and hidden histories of the British Isles.

His work explores the strange spaces where myth and memory overlap — ancient woods, ruined abbeys, lonely roads, storm-lashed coastlines and forgotten hills where old stories still seem quietly alive beneath the surface of modern Britain.

Drawing inspiration from regional folklore, village traditions, wartime Britain and the eerie beauty of ancient landscapes, Robin Wickens creates richly immersive books blending storytelling, atmosphere and emotional depth. His folklore collections focus particularly on Britain’s hidden traditions: fairy lore, ghost roads, underground kingdoms, sea legends and the mysterious beings once believed to inhabit the land beside humanity.

Alongside mythology and folklore, he also writes cosy mystery fiction, historical adventures and imaginative storytelling filled with humour, mystery and strong sense of place.

Through every book, Robin Wickens invites readers to step into a Britain where the past still lingers in mist-covered hills, candlelit ruins and quiet roads after dark — and where some legends may never have disappeared at all.
