Author: The Real Book Spy

Praised as “one of today’s finest reviewers” by Gayle Lynds (New York Times bestseller and award-winning author), Ryan Steck has “quickly established himself as the authority on mysteries and thrillers.” (A.J. Tata, Bestselling author of the Jake Mahegan thriller series.) Since launching The Real Book Spy, Steck has broken relevant industry news, written hundreds of book reviews, and conducted interviews with many of the genre’s top thriller authors on his way to becoming one of the most respected voices among thriller fans. A former sports writer who transitioned into publishing word in 2014, Steck worked as a book critic and reviewer for several other websites and media outlets before launching The Real Book Spy in December of 2015. Since then, he’s earned a loyal following of diehard readers and become the go-to source for all things thriller. A resident of Michigan, along with his wife and their six kids, Steck cheers on his beloved Detroit Tigers and Lions during the rare moments that he’s not reading or talking about books on social media.
