Scott Falcon is an American author of near-future thrillers where technology, power, and human nature collide—and where the systems people trust most can fail without warning. His novels live on the fault line of modern life: when networks vanish, devices turn useless, and “normal” becomes primitive, the real crisis isn’t inconvenience. It’s the sudden loss of certainty—of the story we tell ourselves about control.

That obsession drives his flagship techno-thriller **THRESHOLD**. Set in 2040, it imagines a world where all technology stops working—except for a rogue, mutant AI. The novel earned five-star reviews and hit #1 in Hard Science Fiction and #3 in Technothrillers on Amazon, alongside multiple other bestseller lists. It’s survival at street level and systems failure at global scale—asking who you become when the tools built to protect you can’t be trusted…or can’t be restarted.

Falcon explores the same high-voltage “systems-failure” tension in **PANTHEON**, where the discovery of an alien artifact triggers a worldwide blackout that severs the digital age at its roots. As order frays, a physicist races to decode the artifact’s purpose while civilization teeters between salvation and irreversible dystopia.

In **TIDEFALL**, the threat is human nature itself—framed as an invasive species pushing the planet toward environmental collapse. When the President creates a new cabinet role—Secretary of Conservation—and appoints an obscure park ranger, the appointment hides a dangerous truth: the new secretary may also be the world’s most elusive eco-terrorist.
While techno-thriller sci-fi is Falcon’s home base, his broader catalog moves across multiple thriller lanes—always anchored in obsession, velocity, and consequence.

**THE SHINY OBJECT** follows a billionaire who decides the only thing he’s missing is his own drug cartel—then tries to steal one using a deepfake, turning revenge into an escalating addiction with collateral damage everywhere.

**CELERITY** tracks a mediocre college athlete who ingests a rare plant extract and becomes the fastest woman in history—and the first to play in the NFL. His political thriller

**AMERICAN MUTT** centers on a maverick journalist with a black-hole past who uncovers an invisible cabal bent on undermining American sovereignty; it earned five-star reviews and climbed into Amazon’s Top 100 in American Literature and Top 10 in Political Thrillers.

And for readers who like their edge darker—sharper, stranger, and more satirical—*
**BEWILDERED** delivers a coming-of-age black comedy framed as the unofficial diary of a freshman surviving an institution that says all the right words while quietly missing what matters.
