Rodman  Philbrick Rodman Philbrick

Last updated on: February 9, 2010

Most teen readers associate Rodman Philbrick with Freak the Mighty and the popular feature film, The Mighty, based on the book. But Philbrick has also written an impressive number of other novels for adults as well as young people, most of them mysteries, suspense, horror, fantasy, and science fiction. Pick one of his books at random and you'll be as likely to find a vampire, a werewolf, or an alien as you will a normal human character. He's also written a graphic novel, a novel available only on the Web, and recently a historical novel in diary form for young people.
