Kevin G. Summers

Kevin G Summers is a bestselling and award-winning author best known for the novel “The Bleak December” that was nominated for the Dragon Award in 2017 and the novel “Legendarium.” He was also commissioned to write several short stories in the “Star Trek” franchise. “Isolation Ward 4” which he wrote made the shortlist for the Nebula Awards in 2002. Summers grew up in a household in northern Virginia where the folk heroes were authors. As a child, he remembers going along with his mother who was then a master’s student to George Mason University. He thus got interested in literature from very early on as he sat in on lectures by John Gardner and John Irving. Growing up, he fell in love with the works of the likes of Stephen King, Kurt Vonnegut, JRR Tolkien, John Steinbeck, and Thornton Wilder. When he was not reading the great works of these authors he could be found watching “Star Trek” or playing “Dungeons & Dragons.”
