Riddle is the author of three series (13 science-fiction/thriller novels). His debut novel, “The Atlantis Gene,” is the first book in a trilogy (The Origin Mystery) that has sold over three million copies worldwide, has been translated into 24 languages, and is in development to be a major motion picture. His fourth novel, “Departure,” follows the survivors of a flight that takes off in 2015 and crash-lands in a changed world. HarperCollins published the novel in hardcover in the fall of 2015, and 20th Century Fox is developing it for a feature film.
A.G. Riddle grew up in Boiling Springs, North Carolina, and graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill. During his sophomore year in college, he started his first company with a childhood friend. He currently lives in Raleigh, with his wife, daughter, and an eccentric dog.
