Kevin McIntyre is the author of The Disciple Series, a dark historical supernatural saga born from a lifelong love of storytelling, history, faith, and myth. He grew up in Alaska, a place that left a permanent mark on his imagination. There was something wild and almost fantastical about it, the kind of place that felt pulled from legend. He still remembers watching bald eagles fish over the frozen lake behind his house, and if there is a perfect place to fall in love with fantasy, he would argue Alaska is hard to beat.
As the child of a military family, life changed often and friends rarely stayed in one place for long. Kevin first discovered storytelling through Dungeons and Dragons at nine years old. When people came and went, he began creating stories for himself, building worlds he could control when so much else around him kept shifting. That love of storytelling never faded. Over the years, it only grew stronger, eventually becoming the foundation for the stories he writes today.
After leaving Alaska with his family following his freshman year, he found life in the South difficult and never truly felt at home there. By fifteen, unable to stand the southern heat or the feeling of being out of place, he moved back to Alaska on his own, got his first job, went back to school, and rented a room in a friend’s house. That independence, and that return to the place that felt most like home, shaped much of who he became.
Now at fifty, Kevin’s life has changed dramatically, but storytelling remains at the center of it. A few years ago, he decided it was finally time to put some of the stories in his head onto paper. What began as a single idea for one book became a trilogy, and from there expanded into something far larger. The Disciple Series grew into a world with more stories than he can count, a sweeping universe of cursed men, ruined kingdoms, biblical horror, and the long weight of history.
Kevin lives with his incredible partner, whose support has made this journey possible. She keeps him grounded, focused, and moving forward when his impatience gets the better of him. He is the first to admit patience is not one of his strengths, and her steady presence has helped turn ideas into something real.
Outside of writing, Kevin is also the founder of a veteran support apparel brand dedicated to speaking openly about mental health and PTSD among veterans. It is a mission close to his heart. He knows what it is like when the darkness moves in and there is no voice to answer it. Through events, conversations, and community outreach, he works to help build support for those who are struggling and to remind them they are not alone.
At home, life is shared with two unforgettable dogs. Floki is an oversized Staffordshire Terrier who is loyal, loving, allergic to what feels like the entire world, and as dense as a bag of rocks. Hela, his dog, is a Siberian Husky and Australian Shepherd mix with all the attitude that combination promises. She is outspoken, opinionated, and absolutely certain she is in charge. Together, they keep life loud and interesting.
When he is not writing, Kevin and his partner are usually out riding Nomad, their Harley, or wandering through bookstores looking for a place to disappear for a while. He is also a proud father of three and grandfather of two. Though he does not get to see them as often as he would like, he loves them deeply and takes great pride in the independent, stubborn, remarkable people they have become.
At the heart of everything he does, whether in fiction, community work, or family, is the same belief that stories matter. They give us a place to wrestle with darkness, meaning, history, and hope. For Kevin McIntyre, that belief is what continues to drive every page he writes.
