Morten Vågen (born 13 November 1975) is a Norwegian author. He wrote, together with Oystein Alme, the book Silenced - China’s Great Wall of Censorship, published by Amaryllis Media in late May 2006. The book, according to Reporters Without Borders, "takes the reader on a fascinating and disturbing trip behind China’s Great Wall of Censorship. It also tells the story of Voice of Tibet, the radio station China couldn’t silence."[1]

The book has been released in several countries, most notably in China and in Poland.[2]

Morten Vågen is also the author of several articles and the experimental "Anecdotes about Karkov",[3] a short prose work published in publishing house Gyldendal Norsk Forlag`s Vinduet in 2003.

In the spring of 2012 the Norwegian publisher Kolon published the book Group 12, where two of Morten Vågens prose works is included: "Preface" and "The Red Chapter". According to Kolon: "Group 12" collects "texts in progress" from the writers that will shape the future of Norwegian fiction."[4]
