Vicarious is Now Available on Audible (Narrated by Wil Wheaton & Katherine McNamara)

I’m so excited to announce the release of VICARIOUS on Audible, narrated by the legendary Wil Wheaton and actress Katherine McNamara (Shadowhunters, Arrow, & The Stand).

This is my most ambitious novel to date, described as The Truman Show meets The 100 in a story about the power of human connection in a tech-addicted world.

Thank you to Podium Audio for producing and the publisher Aethon Books, and to the narrators whose performances brought these characters to life in a way I couldn’t imagine.

Listen exclusively on Audible.

The real world is only where you breathe…

In High Earth, digital entertainment is everything. Shows. Virtual worlds. Simulations – there’s something for everybody in a city where working for a living has been rendered obsolete by technological advancements. Even a short walk outside to visit with others is no longer necessary. Just load into the network and you can be with anyone, anywhere.

For Asher Reinhart, nothing compares to Ignis; a live reality show that pushes human beings to their very extremes. As a volunteer director, Asher closely monitors the lives of those living on an interstellar ark, believing they’re the last of humanity.

But when it’s determined that the life of the show’s brightest star, Mission, must be put in danger to boost declining ratings, Asher is forced to choose: the show he loves or the woman whose existence has been the focus of his attention since the day he was born.

From number-one Audible best-selling author and Nebula Award nominee Rhett C. Bruno comes a story about the power of human connection. The Truman Show meets Ready Player One in a novel perfect for fans of Hugh Howey, Kim Stanley Robinson, and Michael Crichton.

The Roach is Now Available!

It’s finally here! My ultimate passion project, THE ROACH. The book is now available on Kindle, Hardcover, and Audible, with the great R.C. Bray (The Martian, Ex-Force) narrating.
This is a dark and powerful journey into the broken mind of a crippled vigilante, clawing his way out of despair to protect his legacy and his city. It’s perfect for fans of character-driven vigilante thrillers like Mr. Robot or Darkly Dreaming Dexter as well as darker superhero tales like Sin CityThe Punisher, and Watchmen.

Here is some early buzz to entice you:

  • “Great narration and dialogue, Rhett C. Bruno brings to life a character who’d rather be dead…or at least has a death wish.”–Darick Robertson, co-creator of The Boys.
  • “White-knuckled and unfiltered. The Roach plunges you into the filth of the city and holds you under.”–James S. Murray, number-one best-selling author of the Awakened series and star of truTV’s Impractical Jokers
  • “Reader beware: once you crack this novel open, you won’t be able to close it!”–Jeremy Robinson, NYT Bestselling author of Tribe and The Others
  • “A world worthy of being a sister city to Gotham. Gritty, grimy, and mesmerizing.”–Actor Lou Diamond Phillips (Prodigal Son, Young Guns, La Bamba)

Dead Acre is an Associated Press Bestseller!

Who doesn’t love a good Western? How about one with a dark fantasy twist?

I’m happy to announce the release of Dead Acre, an Audible Exclusive by myself and Jaime Castle. It’s available now on Audible and for free with an Audible Premium Plus Subscription. In it’s first week on the market, it was a #1 Listen on Audible, and #5 on the Associated Press Audio Bestsellers list.

What are you waiting for? Listen Here!

The Witcher meets The Dresden Files in this Weird Western tale by the Audible number-one bestselling duo, performed by Roger Clark (Red Dead Redemption 2’s Arthur Morgan).

James Crowley met his mortal end in a hail of gunfire. Now, he finds himself in purgatory, serving the White Throne to avoid falling to hell. Not quite undead, though not alive either, the best he can hope for is to work off his servitude and fade away.

His not-so-sacred duty as a Hand of God? Use his new abilities to hunt down demonic beings that have infiltrated the mortal realm.

This time, the White Throne has sent him to the middle of nowhere: a western town called Dead Acre with a saloon, a moldy church, and little else worth talking about. There isn’t even a sheriff. But the local cobbler has gone missing at the same time as a number of graves were desecrated.

Crowley must follow the clues, all while dealing with a cutthroat gang which treats Dead Acre like they own it, an extraordinary woman who makes it hard to focus, and locals not keen on strangers.
Life isn’t simple for a Hand of God.
