31623984If you’re a video gamer and enjoy the likes of Bethesda’s Fallout, Rust, or movies like Mad Max, you’re going to want to step into C.T. Phipps’ world of Cthulhu Armageddon. Phipps creates a post-apocalyptic world where the United States has been destroyed by an event called the Rising when the “Great Old Ones” have returned to reclaim our world as their own. The world as we know it is thrown into chaos and the blasted wastelands are plagued by nasty creatures, sub-human species, and factions. The setting is diverse, well explored, and makes an excellent backdrop for any number of stories to take place.

Enter John Henry Booth. Booth is the leader of a ranger/extermination team called Gamma squad which protects the interests of New Arkham, a city-state in the former United States where some of the last remnants of humanity reside. Booth has a lot of familiarity…

Pre-Orders for WRAITH KNIGHT and ELDRITCH OPS. now available!

Hey folks,

I’ve had an extraordinarily busy year and a lot of you may be overwhelmed with my output. Others, God bless you, just may want to know when the next book is coming out. I’m pleased to say we’ve got plenty of new material in the pipeline with some of the biggest being works I announced toward the beginning of the year.

WRAITH KNIGHT and ELDRITCH OPS.

Wraith Knight is the story of a Ringwraith-like entity who finds himself suddenly blessed with free-will following the destruction of the Dark Lord. Allying with a young and extremely misguided heroine, he decides to see just how much the heroes have screwed up the world past the last war of light and darkness. It is the first volume of the Three Worlds Trilogy which I think of as one of my best works. It’s also going to be available on November 15th, 2016!

Eldritch Ops. is the second book of the Secret Files of the Red Room trilogy which follows the adventures of Derek Hawthorne and his partner Shannon. Having found himself as one of the all-powerful Committee, Derek chafes at his new desk job and wants one more case to make himself feel relevant. Unfortunately, when his now-vampirized ex-partner Christopher comes to him for help, he discovers he’s now neck-deep in a conflict that may result in war between humans and vampires. A conflict humanity might not win. Guest-starring Dracula. It’s going to be available April 1st, 2017 and that’s no April Fools.

But there’s something even better about these two books. They’re going to be available in brick and mortar stores! Available to order in physical form wherever paper books are sold! Yes, I’m losing my indie cred rapidly!

Two essays by me for the Fantasy Book Critic!

Hey fans,

The FANTASY BOOK CRITIC has been a big supporter of my work. It’s probably my favorite review site on the web right now. One of the things they’ve done for me is they’ve shared two of my essays on writing which I recommend to both of you.

TO MYTHOS OR NOT MYTHOS – An essay which talks about whether or not to do works set in H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos when you’re a new horror writer. It’s how I decided to do CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON.

GIVING BACK VAMPIRES THEIR BITE – An essay which discusses the nature of vampires in recent years and how they should be treated to get the maximum effect from their horror/sexiness. An essay related to STRAIGHT OUTTA FANGTON.

I hope you guys will enjoy.

Lucifer’s Star is now available on Kindle!

Hey folks,

Being a writer is a time of feast or famine and it’s good to have a feast time. I have yet another book which has come out this year and it’s not even my last. LUCIFER’S STAR is now available on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited for those who want to pick up a copy. Written by me and Michael Suttkus, it is a space opera novel I think folks will quite enjoy.

Count Cassius Mass was the greatest star pilot of the Crius Archduchy. He fought fiercely for his cause, only to watch his nation fall to the Commonwealth. It was only after that he realized the side he’d been fighting for was the wrong one. Now a semi-functional navigator on a interstellar freight hauler, he tries to hide who he was and escape his past. Unfortunately, some things refuse to stay buried and he ends up conscripted by the very people who destroyed his homeland. Their mission for him? Destroy his clone before he’s used to rouse the defeated Crius Archduchy from their apathy.

LUCIFER’S STAR is the first novel of “A Spacer’s Saga”, which is a dark science fiction space opera novel set in a world of aliens, war, politics, and slavery.

Interview with C.T. Phipps on THE FANTASY BOOK CRITIC

Awesome,

The FANTASY BOOK CRITIC was very good to me this month and did a kickass interview with me about my books STRAIGHT OUTTA FANGTON, CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON, and LUCIFER’S STAR. They asked a lot of really good questions and I got a chance to talk about details I wouldn’t normally be able to talk about.

Check it out if you want to learn more about my books!

Cthulhu Armageddon’s audiobook is now available!

Hey folks,

I’m incredibly pleased to announce that CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON is now available on audiobook for your listening pleasure. Better still, Jeffrey Kafer, who made the Supervillainy Saga and Esoterrorism so good will be lending his voice to one last series of mine. I think this is probably our best work and fans of post-apocalypse fiction, science fiction, horror, and the Cthulhu Mythos will all enjoy it.

“Under an alien sky where gods of eldritch matter rule, the only truth is revenge.”

CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON is the story of a world 100 years past the rise of the Old Ones which has been reduced to a giant monster-filled desert and pockets of human survivors (along with Deep Ones, ghouls, and other “talking” monsters).

John Henry Booth is a ranger of one of the largest remaining city-states when he’s exiled for his group’s massacre and suspicion he’s “tainted.” Escaping with a doctor who killed her husband, John travels across the Earth’s blasted alien ruins to seek the life of the man who killed his friends.

It’s the one thing he has left.

The Fantasy Book Critic reviews Cthulhu Armageddon and Straight Outta Fangton!

I’m a huge fan of the Fantasy Book Critic because they’re my number 1# source of interesting new independent (and not so independent) book reviews. So it was a real honor that they took the time out to give CTHULHU ARMAGEDDON and STRAIGHT OUTTA FANGTON a once-over.  Better still, they liked both novels and had a lot of interesting thoughts on both.
