K.R. Eckert is the author of the popular Kindle Short Reads, THOSE WHO KNOW TOO MUCH, ANGEL HOTEL, and ECHOES OF BATTLE. His debut novel THE TEMPLAR SUCCESSION, a historical thriller, will be released exclusively for the Kindle on July 1, 2015. A sequel, tentatively titled THE GETTYSBURG PLOT is scheduled for release on March 1, 2016. K. R. is also developing a short story prequel to THE TEMPLAR SUCCESSION, called the Roosevelt Memoranda. A period novel and a non fiction narrative, both about the Battle of Gettysburg are also in the works.

Prior to writing full time, K. R. owned a successful second hand book business, and is probably one of the few people to have read and book, worked on writing a book, and sold a book all in the same day.

He is an avid student of history and politics, with too many literary heroes to mention. He lives in Central Pennsylvania.
