What kind of man do you become when you realize the monsters are the ones worth fighting for?
Scott Alan Kay is an American author and U.S. Air Force veteran with a lifelong fascination for ancient mythology, complex magic systems, and character driven dark urban fantasy. He writes fiction where the storms are real, the magic does not always behave, and power shows up whether or not the character is ready for it. His stories center identity, tension, and transformation, bringing just enough supernatural complication to make things interesting.
His gripping debut novel kicks off a sprawling journey following a young NYU student who discovers a dormant lineage of Irish witches. Thrust headfirst into a brutal divine crusade led by the forces of heaven, he has to uncover what he is, what he can do, and exactly what survival is going to cost him.
When not writing, Scott is probably avoiding people, obsessing over sentence rhythm, or wishing fictional spells worked on laundry. He believes stories do not need to shout to hit hard, because sometimes a quiet kind of weird is exactly what we are looking for.
