Timeline
Wilson's writings have received mostly positive reviews. Kirkus Reviews said of The 100 Cupboards, "Wilson’s writing is fantastical, but works with clever sentences and turns of phrase that render it more than just another rote fantasy."
In 2017, Wilson underwent surgery to remove a brain tumor.
N.D. Wilson also wrote and filmed a movie called The River Thief. The movie was released to theaters in 2016, starring Joel Courtney.
Much of Wilson's fictional writing is characterized by its creative allusions to classic literature. Leepike Ridge uses themes from The Odyssey, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and King Solomon's Mines, while the 100 Cupboards series was influenced by the King Arthur stories, both as told by Geoffrey of Monmouth and by Edmund Spenser in The Faerie Queene, and fairy tales from Robert Kirk and Sir Walter Scott. The Ashtown Burials series includes many historical and mythological characters (including Gilgamesh), and the first book in that series, The Dragon's Tooth, refigures elements from the opening chapters of Treasure Island. Boys of Blur, meanwhile, mirrors Beowulf—despite being set in the Florida Everglades.
The first volume in another Wilson series, The Ashtown Burials, was released in August 2011. The Dragon's Tooth is the story of orphaned siblings Cyrus, Antigone, and Daniel, who become involved in a secret society of explorers after their late parents' motel burns down. The second and third books in the series, "The Drowned Vault" and "Empire of Bones," continue their story, describing Cyrus, Antigone, and Daniel's struggle against two sets of villains—invincible transmortals on one hand and a demented genetic engineer on the other. The series will comprise five novels.
A "bookumentary" film adaptation of Notes from the Tilt-a-Whirl, narrated by Wilson, was released on DVD in 2011.
In 2010 Wilson was named screenwriter for a film adaptation of C. S. Lewis's The Great Divorce, originally slated for release in 2013. The adaptation remains in development.
Wilson began teaching at New Saint Andrews College as an adjunct professor in 2001. In 2005, he was named a Fellow of Literature at the college. The same year, Wilson announced in Books & Culture magazine that he had made a near-duplicate of the Shroud of Turin image by exposing dark linen to the sun for ten days under a sheet of glass on which a positive mask had been painted, and in doing so, "caused some uproar in the Shroud of Turin world."
Wilson is the son of Calvinist minister Douglas Wilson and author Nancy Wilson. In sixth grade, Wilson decided that he wanted to become a writer, but he did not do any lengthy fiction writing until some years later. Wilson graduated from New Saint Andrews College in 1999. He studied theology through Liberty University from 1999 to 2000, and he received a master's degree in liberal arts from St. John’s College in 2001.
Nathan David Wilson (born 1978) is an American author of young adult fiction.
