Fyodor Berezin was born in Donetsk.[2] He lived there until 1977 when he entered the Engels anti-aircraft training school. He graduated in 1981 and served as an AA officer first in Kazakhstan and then in the Far East.

In 1991, Berezin left the military at the rank of captain and currently lives in his hometown of Donetsk. He has worked as an entrepreneur and tried a multitude of different career fields such as mine construction. Married, he has a son and a daughter.

Berezin has been a professional writer since 1998. He is also the founder and chairman of "Strannik" (English: Wanderer), the Donetsk science fiction club.

Berezin's novels work within the boundaries of hard science fiction and are labeled by some critics as "turborealist". He calls his style of writing "science-fictional/philosophical technothriller". Berezin published his first novel, the science-fictional Ash (Russian: Пепел), in 2001. He recognizes the influence of H. G. Wells, Kurt Vonnegut, Stanislaw Lem and Arkady and Boris Strugatsky in his work.[3]
