Antonio Costantini

Engineer, writer, father, screenwriter, reader, traveller, gamer—and more, in no particular order. Antonio Costantini began telling stories as a child but stopped once he realised not everyone appreciates a good tall tale. Instead, he turned to writing them down—and it seems to be working out!

He works across children’s literature, comics (including for Sergio Bonelli Editore), and gamebooks, collaborating with leading publishers in the field. His credits include the Age of Vapor series for Edizioni Librarsi, Homo homini lupus for Dracomaca, standalones such as Una voce dal passato for Raven Distribution, Persephone X for Edizioni Aristea, and Sette eoni in Tibet for Acheron Books.

One day, he dreams of combining his engineering background with his love of rebellion to invent a new field: “punk engineering.”

For now, he shares his family’s travel adventures on Instagram through the account Costabuki – Japan and Beyond Through the Eyes of an Italian-Japanese Family.
