edit data

T. M. Hunter has always had a fascination with travel to other worlds, earning a B. S. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Kansas. His works have often been compared to the great pulp writers of the past, which made his multiple appearances in RAY GUN REVIVAL seem almost destined. He mainly writes in his Aston West universe, with three novels in the series (HEROES DIE YOUNG, FRIENDS IN DEED and DEATH BRINGS VICTORY) and a novella, SEEKER. His short stories have been featured in various online magazines and in several short story collections (including the DEAD OR ALIVE collection from ResAliens Press). Both Aston West and T. M. Hunter continue to win the hearts of readers everywhere.

T. M. Hunter currently lives in Wichita, Kansa ...more

2026 Writing Goals

Well, things were somewhat decent, given the time constraints I had in 2025. Working to get more done in 2026. Here are my goals:1. Publish the final Aston West series novel, Before the Dawn. 2. Complete the first draft of Tempted, the second title in my new Demonkiller series. 3. Re-publish and re-brand my two short story collections, Dead or Alive and Dirty Dozen.
