Heroes of Chivalry

by Vox Day

1912

This Junior Classics volume gathers older adventure tales of knights, quests, and heroic deeds for younger readers. It is a curated collection of legendary material rather than a single story.

Tales That Never Grow Old

by Vox Day

1912

A family-friendly anthology of classic stories chosen for younger readers. Expect familiar favorites, moral tales, and the sort of old-fashioned storytelling meant to be read aloud.

Rebel Moon

by Vox Day

1996

In 2069, lunar colonists rise against a peaceful Earth, and hacker Dalton Starkiller becomes their unlikely soldier. This game tie-in is a brisk rebellion story with moon-base stakes.

The Anthology at the End of the Universe

by Lawrence Watt Evans

2005

This essay anthology revisits Douglas Adams and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy from many angles, including humor, science, fandom, and philosophy. It is for readers who like pop-culture criticism more than fiction.

Summa Elvetica

by Vox Day

2008

In Selenoth, a church inquiry into whether elves have souls threatens to end in diplomacy, betrayal, or holy war. The collection also includes other stories set in the same fantasy world.

The Irrational Atheist

by Vox Day

Day argues against several prominent New Atheist writers, focusing on history, morality, and the social effects of religion. It is a combative apologetics book aimed at public debate.

The Return of the Great Depression

by Vox Day

2009

Written in the shadow of the financial crisis, this book argues that deeper structural problems were driving the economy toward prolonged trouble. It blends market commentary, history, and prediction.

A Magic Broken

by Vox Day

2012

In the city of Malkan, a dwarf named Lodi and the spy Nicolas chase the same kidnapped elf for very different reasons. The novella is short, tense, and morally slippery.

A Throne of Bones

by Vox Day

2012

In Selenoth, imperial rivalries, border rebellions, and gathering orc armies threaten to tear the world apart. This opening epic fantasy launches a sprawling war of politics, faith, and steel.

A Man Disrupted

by Vox Day

2013

On sanctuary world Rhysalan, Chief Warrant Officer Graven Tower investigates the murder of an alien heir among thousands of governments-in-exile. It is a hard-edged mix of murder mystery, military SF, and xeno politics.

Gravity Kills

by Vox Day

2013

Graven Tower returns to Rhysalan for another hard-edged Quantum Mortis case, where alien intrigue, sanctuary-world politics, and violent policing collide. The second book keeps the series focused on dangerous investigations with larger consequences.

The Last Witchking

by Vox Day

2013

Three dark fantasy pieces from Selenoth explore sorcery, sacrifice, faith, and the long shadow of the Witchkings. It works both as a standalone collection and a side road into the larger world.

The Wardog's Coin

by Vox Day

2013

A mercenary sergeant joins an Elvish mage on a dangerous raid before a brutal battle against orcs and goblins. This Selenoth tale leans hard into camaraderie, tactics, and the cost of war.

The Altar of Hate

This short-story collection ranges from fantasy to techno-horror to military science fiction. It is a sampler of darker standalone tales outside Day's main series worlds.

The Programmed Mind

by Vox Day

2014

Centuries before Graven Tower's era, top operative Daniela York investigates a vanished cruiser and a plot that could trigger galactic war. This prequel shifts Quantum Mortis into spy-thriller mode.

Cuckservative

by Vox Day

2015

Co-written with John Red Eagle, this polemic attacks what the authors see as the failures and compromises of mainstream American conservatism. It is sharp, partisan, and built for argument.

SJWs Always Lie

by Vox Day

2015

A short polemical manifesto in which Day lays out his framework for understanding social-justice activism, public rhetoric, and culture-war tactics. It is part glossary, part argument, part warning.

A Sea of Skulls

by Vox Day

2016

War spreads across Selenoth as civil conflict, invading orcs, wolf-demons, and new enemies batter every realm. The sequel widens the battlefield and hints at an older, deeper struggle behind the chaos.

On the Existence of Gods

by Vox Day

2016

This brief work makes a case for belief by arguing from consciousness, morality, evil, and long human testimony about the divine. It reads as a compact apologetics essay.

On the Question of Free Trade

by Vox Day

2016

This short economics volume presents a debate over whether free trade helps or harms national economies. It is structured as an argument, not a neutral textbook.

Crisis & Conceit, 2006-2009

by Vox Day

2017

This second collection gathers essays from years marked by financial turmoil and political upheaval. It offers more of Day's commentary on economics, public life, and belief.

Innocence & Intellect, 2001-2005

SJWs Always Double Down

by Vox Day

2017

This follow-up applies Day's framework to later public battles, arguing that movements under pressure rarely retreat. Expect examples drawn from media, politics, and internet culture.

The War in Heaven

by Vox Day

2017

Teen siblings Jami, Holli, and Christopher Lewis are drawn into a literal war between Heaven and Hell. When Christopher is tempted to defy God, one family's crisis becomes a cosmic one.

The Wrath of Angels

by Vox Day

2017

After battles in Heaven and on Earth, the Lewis siblings face their hardest test yet as darker powers close in. Faith, fear, and demonic pressure drive this final volume.

Jordanetics

by Vox Day

This book is a sustained critique of Jordan Peterson's ideas, style, and public role. Day reads Peterson closely, then argues that the message beneath the surface is less helpful than it seems.

Alt-Hero Volume 1

by Vox Day

2019

The first six issues of Alt-Hero introduce a politically charged superhero world of crackdowns, rebellion, and escalating conflict. It is comic-book action with a clear ideological edge.

Corporate Cancer

Author bio

Vox Day is the pen name of Theodore Beale, an American writer born in Minnesota in 1968 and raised there before going on to Bucknell University, where he studied economics and East Asian studies.

Writing was not his first public career.

In the 1990s he moved through games, music, and media work. He was part of the electronic group Psykosonik, helped found the game company Fenris Wolf, and worked on projects tied to Rebel Moon and the game version of The War in Heaven. That background matters because his fiction often feels built by someone who likes systems, rules, conflict, and big settings that have to function from the inside out.

He first used the name Vox Day while writing game reviews and columns, then kept it for fiction, essays, and long-form commentary. His earliest novels appeared under his own name, Theodore Beale, and started the Eternal Warriors sequence with The War in Heaven, followed by The World in Shadow and The Wrath of Angels. Those books bring spiritual warfare into modern life, with angels, demons, temptation, and ordinary family life all pressed together.

His best known fantasy work is probably the Selenoth setting, especially A Throne of Bones. That book opens the Arts of Dark and Light sequence with imperial politics, church intrigue, military campaigns, and a large cast moving toward war. Related works such as Summa Elvetica, A Magic Broken, The Wardog's Coin, and The Last Witchking explore the same world from smaller angles, which makes the setting feel more lived in than a single giant novel can manage on its own.

He also writes science fiction. In A Man Disrupted and the Quantum Mortis books, the focus shifts to sanctuary planets, alien politics, and hard-bitten investigations. The more recent Biostellar books, beginning with Space Fleet Academy: Year One, move toward academy-based military SF, while Out of the Shadows and Midnight's War turn to vampire fiction with a more modern, conspiratorial edge.

He does not stay in one lane.

Alongside the novels, Beale has published a long run of nonfiction that ranges across religion, economics, philosophy, and cultural criticism. Books such as The Irrational Atheist, The Return of the Great Depression, and SJWs Always Lie show the argumentative side of his bibliography, while later titles continue that mix of polemic and theory. Even when the subject changes, the pattern stays fairly consistent: speculative fiction on one side, direct debate on the other.

In recent years he has continued writing and editing while publishing through Castalia House. For readers, that means the bibliography is unusually mixed. You can start with epic fantasy, jump to military science fiction, move into horror, or head straight for the nonfiction. The common thread is not genre so much as approach: big claims, large conflicts, and stories or arguments built around pressure, choice, and belief.
