Matthias Bauer was born in Lienz/Austria. After studying history and folklore he worked for publishing companies and exhibitions.

With Bastian Zach he writes novels and screenplays. Their novels "Morbus Dei: The Arrival", "Morbus Dei: Inferno" and "Morbus Dei: The Sign of Aries" were a big hit among both critics and readers in Europe. The three historical mystery-thrillers were translated into English (publications in Spanish will follow in 2016) and will be adapted into an international TV series by G5fiction/ZDF Enterprises.
Their new novel "Blood of the Picts" will be released by Heyne/Random House in 2016.

Zach/Bauer also wrote the scripts for the horror movie "One Way Trip 3D", and the international adventure movie "Northmen – A Viking Saga" with Ed Skrein (Deadpool, Game of Thrones), Ryan Kwanten (True Blood) and Tom Hopper (Black Sails). "Northmen" was sold worldwide in over 50 countries and was bought by Starz/Anchor Bay Entertainment for the American and Canadian market. Upon its US release Northmen made it straight into the Top 10 (DVD / Blu-ray).
