AWAKEN ARCHANGEL

Universal Technologies Series | Book 1

Coming May 29th

Gears & gladiators collide in this epic tale of divine proportions. Journey back to a time before time, when innocence reigned, and evil was still an unused variable.

 

Heaven's light is going out. And the Trees of Life are failing. 

Nobody knows who Michael is. Not even Michael. He’s endured horrors no indoctrinated, half-witted angel would ever believe. Survived on scraps, been humiliated— painted by candlelight while hiding in holes. But when a mysterious cloaked figure rescues him, he’s thrust into some perfect utopia he doesn’t fit into.

 

Obsessed with revenge, he abandons his art to become the most vicious gladiator Heaven’s pits have ever seen. But with no record of his existence, his path to vengeance seems hopeless—until Lucifer offers a chance to fight for Universal Technologies, the secretive project on Eastern Island.

 

There he meets Trudy, a computer scientist—and quite possibly the only atheist in Heaven. When she uncovers a terrifying new threat, nobody will believe her. That is, until she meets the Precept, the Tinker, and the Pious-Pontificator.

 

As the darkness closes in, can Michael and Trudy unbury the mysteries that will save the worlds? Or will the gates of paradise—and everything else—crumble to ash?

In Progress

Release Late 2023

C.J. is currently working on an epic fantasy novel series about 

the Archangel Michael and the inception of evil. Combining folklore, religion and iconography, this ever-so-human tale about the heavenly host brings us back to a time before time—when innocence reigned and evil was still an unused variable.

Incorporating Bostrom's simulation hypothesis, this unique spin on the legendary fall from grace shows us how our attitudes and choices truly have the power to not only shape us; but to shape everything.

Wicked Ever After is here!

Today! February 10, 2023

Check out the latest work by C.J. Piperata.

Wicked Ever After is a fairytale retelling anthology from Grim House Publishing. An eclectic collection of dark retellings, C.J. and other talented authors twist and reimagine our favorite fables to show us that sometimes-- we only get one side of the story. "Rumpelstiltskin & True Love's Song," C.J.'s contribution to the project, is a twist on the famous tale that taught us that all straw can be weaved to gold. Or rather, any hopeless situation can be mastered with a little gumption, creativity, and of course... magic.
