Kevin J. Glynn earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in journalism from the University of Rhode Island and is a former U.S. Navy Reserve Officer. He hails from Connecticut, and he traveled the world as a Special Agent with the Naval Criminal Investigative Service. He is retired and resides with his wife Frances in the southeast United States. Kevin's first novel, "Voyage of Reprisal," took him 11 years to write and edit while he was employed and helping to raise two children. Once he retired, he was able to write, edit and Indie-publish a sequel, "The English Corsair," in one year. His third book is called "Armada: The Invincible." Kevin's nautical fiction/historical fiction books fall under a series called "Elizabethan Sea Dogs" which takes place during the age of sail in the 16th Century Renaissance period. They are epic sea tales, filled with intrigue, action and adventure, personal conflicts, and war at sea. Kevin carefully researches his materials and fills his books with accurate details, fascinating characters, and page-turning plots. Kevin's sea tales are perfect for readers who appreciate Patrick O'Brien (the Aubrey/Maturin series), Herman Melville (Moby Dick), and Robert Louis Stevenson (Treasure Island). Readers of more contemporary works, such as Michael Crichton's “Pirate Latitudes” or Andrew Wareham’s “The Call of the Sea” series will enjoy reading Kevin's novels.
