From 2018 he has also written Firefly novels for Titan Books.

Lovegrove was educated at Radley College, Oxfordshire, and was one of the subjects of a 1979 BBC television series, Public School. A follow-up programme was broadcast on 27 October 2013, in which Lovegrove talked about his experiences of attending the school and about public school education in general. He later studied English literature at St Catherine's College, Oxford.

His recent Pantheon series is a set of standalone military science fiction adventure novels featuring the gods of ancient mythologies. Seven have been published so far: The Age of Ra, The Age of Zeus, The Age of Odin (a New York Times best seller), The Age of Aztec, Age of Voodoo, Age of Shiva, Age of Heroes and Age of Legends. In 2013, Lovegrove published an omnibus collecting three Pantheon novellas, entitled The Age of Godpunk.

Since 2013 he has begun publishing Sherlock Holmes pastiche novels for Titan Books, including a mash-up trilogy, Cthulhu Casebooks, that crosses over the literary worlds of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and H.P. Lovecraft.

He has contributed reviews and journalism to magazines such as The Literary Review, Interzone, BBC MindGames Magazine and Comic Heroes, and has set cryptic crosswords to the weekend section of The Independent. Starting in 2007, he became a regular reviewer of fiction for the Financial Times, concentrating primarily on SF and children's fiction.
