Steven Harrison
By profession, Steven Harrison works in IT, but fiction has been a long-held ambition since his early twenties. The story that became Harbinger has taken many forms over the years, delayed by responsibility, commitment, and the ordinary weight of life.
The Author
After a serious health event in 2024, Harrison reassessed his priorities and returned to a dream he had carried for decades: writing the novel that would not leave him alone.
Harbinger: The Prophet's Game draws on a longstanding fascination with moral certainty in violent professions, the burden carried by those operating inside systems designed to protect others, and the private cost paid by people expected to stand between order and chaos.
The Work
Harrison's fiction leans into the pressure points of modern noir: compromised systems, private motives, and the uneasy moment when a pattern becomes impossible to ignore.
His stories are built for readers who want tension with intelligence, atmosphere with consequence, and characters moving through a world where certainty is dangerous.
