About the author

Jonathan Ryan is an author, columnist, blogger and speaker. The Library Journal called his debut paranormal thriller, 3 Gates of the Dead (Open Road Media), “a real attraction for fans of The Exorcist and the darker fiction of C.S. Lewis and Charles Williams.” Book two in the series, Dark Bride (Open Road Media), was released in April 2015.

Along with his novel writing, Ryan has written for Christianity Today, Quantum Fairy Tales, Huffington Post and Notre Dame Magazine. In 2013, he started The Rogue on the interfaith site, Patheos, where he interviewed Kirk Cameron, Ken Ham, Vera Faminga, and director James Wan. He produced live coverage of the Ken Ham/Bill Nye the Science Guy Creation Museum debate that went viral with the hashtag “HamonNye.”

Recently, he co-founded the blog, Sick Pilgrim, with Jessica Mesman Griffith as a way to explore the edge of faith, reason and doubt.

Jonathan was asked by the Charles Williams estate to write an introduction for the famous Inkling’s novels on e-book through Open Road, the first person since the renowned poet, T.S. Eliot, to introduce Williams’s work to the world.

He has spoken to a wide variety of crowds about writing, faith, religion, and the weird. His audiences have included The CCO Jubilee conference, Salt Lake City Comic Con, Teen Author Boot Camp, Get Inked Writer’s Conference, Women in Publishing (Chicago), and the Festival of Faith and Writing.

Jonathan currently lives in South Bend, Indiana, where he is an editor at Ave Maria Press. He is represented by Amy Jameson of A plus B Works Literary.
