Welcome to the official website of Joseph Rhea

Joseph Rhea is a scientist, science fiction author, computer game designer, and believer in moving humanity forward, not backward. Advised by his high school English teacher to pursue a life of writing, he instead chose a career in engineering and science, driven by his need to explore the world and help create new technologies. Now he has come full circle and is using that experience to become a new voice in today's science fiction. His work has been praised as "high-concept science fiction that blends hard science with relentless momentum." His debut, the award-winning techno-thriller Cyberdrome, was followed by the Novum Saga, a five-book undersea epic that envisions Earth's last survivors struggling to endure on a hostile ocean world. Most recently, he completed Rogue Wave, the first novel in the Novum Origins prequel trilogy - originally conceived as a feature screenplay.
