Born in 1917 in Fredensborg Denmark Sven Hassel joined the merchant navy at the age of 14. He did his compulsory year's military service in the Danish forces in 1936 and then facing unemployment joined the German army.

When the war ended in 1945 he was transferred between Russian American and French prison camps and upon returning to Denmark was sentenced to 10 years in prison for treason. He began writing LEGION OF THE DAMNED during his time as a prisoner of war. His 14 Second World War books which draw on his own encounters and experiences as a soldier have sold over 53 million copies worldwide and have been published in more than 50 countries.
