My newest release is book two in a Young Adult, Sci-fi/Dystopian series called CITY OF WORDS. This novel follows the action-packed, suspense-filled journey of Alpha, as he tries to find a way to survive under the watchful eye of the all-powerful ruling authority, called the Common, and as he tries to save the life of the only person in the world that he truly cares about, a girl named Theta.

My fantasy, sci-fi series, THE HISTORIES OF EARTH, is a fast-paced, interstellar adventure. It's about a group of "Light Travelers", who must use their secret abilit

Last book in the City of Words series

My last fiction book is finished. The final book in the City of Words series has been finally released. I started writing this book in 2017; and as I kept writing, my crazy dystopian ideas began to look more and more like real life, until they started to even mirror future events. As I saw this happening, I thought about changing some of what I'd written Pre-2020, but I decided to keep it all in. Read more of this blog post »

“...a friend is someone to whom you can tell all your secrets, someone whom you can trust without reservation, a person who is not overawed when you are at your best, and is not turned away when you are at your worst.”
Steven J. Carroll, City of Words

“Only worse thing than being cold, and too tired to defend yourself, is to be cold and alone. And I wouldn't ever wish that on nobody.”
Steven J. Carroll, The Road to Jericho

“...a friend is someone to whom you can tell all your secrets, someone whom you can trust without reservation, a person who is not overawed when you are at your best, and is not turned away when you are at your worst.”
Steven J. Carroll, City of Words

“And it is a strange thing about love... it is that it can take a strength that would seem otherwise insignificant and transform it into a hardly quenchable power.”
Steven J. Carroll, Worlds Unending

“You can always tell the heart of man by what he do, and by what he don't do...”
Steven J. Carroll, The Road to Jericho

“Only worse thing than being cold, and too tired to defend yourself, is to be cold and alone. And I wouldn't ever wish that on nobody.”
