Kevin Wayne Jeter est reconnu pour son style d'écriture littéraire, ses thèmes sombres et ses personnages paranoïaques et peu sympathiques. Bien que souvent classé dans la science-fiction et l'horreur, son œuvre se distingue par une profonde perspicacité psychologique et une atmosphère unique. Jeter est également crédité pour avoir inventé le terme « Steampunk », reflétant son influence sur le développement du genre. Ses romans explorent les limites de la nature humaine et des structures sociales avec un sens troublant de la réalité.
