Kevin Killiany

Kevin Killiany is an American writer of media tie-in science fiction, working across several licensed universes. He has written extensively for the BattleTech line from Catalyst Game Labs / BattleCorp, contributing to the MechWarrior Dark Age era, and for Star Trek's Starfleet Corps of Engineers e-novella series and its anthology spin-offs, set aboard a Starfleet vessel devoted to engineering crises rather than exploration.
