Hello, I'm Trent Whippler — a high school teacher, career counsellor, lifelong storyteller, and multi genre fiction author with a deep fascination for the human condition and the worlds we build around it. I hold a Bachelor of Education, a Bachelor of Arts, and a Master of Arts in Military History, a background that shapes both the strategic tension in my technothrillers and the mythic depth of my fantasy worlds.
I write across two genres that have inspired me since childhood: Cyberpunk/dystopian science fiction that explores the interactions between humanity and the technologies we create, and High fantasy epics rooted in ancient conflicts, moral complexity, and richly imagined worlds.
Whether I’m crafting a dystopian future controlled by the ‘tech bros’ or a realm of magic and myth, my stories centre on characters facing impossible choices, corrupt systems, and the timeless struggle to define ourselves as individuals.
My influences range from Blade Runner, Black Mirror, the works of Mark Greaney and Lee Child, to the sweeping fantasy traditions shaped by J.R.R. Tolkien, Terry Brooks, and Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman. These inspirations continue to challenge and expand my imagination in both genres.
When I’m not in the classroom or immersed in a new manuscript, you’ll find me reading, reflecting, or enjoying a thought provoking movie or series. I live in Regina, Saskatchewan with my wonderful wife and our cat, Xena — a home filled with creativity, curiosity, and plenty of love.
If you enjoy stories that blend high tech intrigue, mythic adventure, and all-too-human characters, I invite you to step into my worlds. Each book is a piece of my heart and imagination, and I’m excited to share these journeys with you.
