Kir Lukovkin was born in the city of Baku: the capital of Azerbaijan. In 2007, Kir finally decided on his choice of future profession, entering the law faculty of the Teachers' University, and he still holds his full-time job as a college teacher.

Still, Kir's passion to tell stories was his strongest ambition. He spent all his spare time writing until one of his short stories, Special Offer, was accepted for publication. Kir finds his inspiration in all speculative genres, as well as thrillers and dark fiction. His short stories have since then appeared in a number of major science fiction magazines.

Finally, Kir wrote his first novel, The URANUS Code, which was published in 2016, becoming the starting point of his Citadel World LitRPG series.
