Harry, Matt
Entry updated 18 May 2026. Tagged: Author.
(? - ) US filmmaker and author whose earlier work, primarily the Codex Arcanum series beginning with Sorcery for Beginners (2017), is fantasy. He is of sf interest for Superkid (2021), featuring a girl Superhero whose exploits are written to appeal to the youngest cohort of the Young Adult market, and for Ash Land (2026), set in a ravaged Near Future Los Angeles (see California), where escaped "microbots" eat human flesh, creating something like a Pandemic.
Matt Harry (which is his real name) should not be confused with the American wrestler Matt Hardy (1974- ). [JC]
