Who Built The Humans?

📖 The Scoop

Beyond time. Beyond space. Beyond satire.

Who Built The Humans? is a zany Sci-Fi comedy reminiscent of the greats. Phillip Carter, a perfect hybrid of comedian and author, knows how to tickle your book-loving brain in all the right places.

So what's his debut book about?

Half crab, half interdimensional treasure hunter, Lax Morales didn't plan to stay on Earth for long because sentient beings with only two legs freak him out. But with his stolen time-ship nowhere to be found, he simply had no choice but to morph into human form, put on a nice suit, and start his own cu

Meanwhile, in some weird parallel reality, an evil crystal called Susan is trying to take over the galaxy. Luckily, crystals can't move very fast. Unluckily, he has commandeered an old lady, also called Susan. It's a love-hate relationship that might just end reality.

Now, searching the planet in plain sight of the alien hunters who shot his time-ship down, his mind travels through the parallel worlds he visited before crashing here. Half memory, half hallucination, the rest of Who Built The Humans? is a deranged adventure in Science Fiction and satire, the chapters of which can be probed in any order, from any angle, just like your love life. Read front-to-back, this manic multiverse unfolds into a delirious self-parodying comedy novel. Read universe-by-universe, it does a good job of pretending it's a nice normal sci-fi anthology so you can take it home to your family without them giving you 'the look'.

You know the one.

Perfect for fans of Douglas Adams and Frankie Boyle, Who Built The Humans is an adventure into quick-witted and acerbic Sci-Fi silliness that is cleverer on the inside. If you like your Sci-Fi with an existential edge, or your comedy with a dark twist, this is the book for you.
