The SCP Foundation Aephid Protocol: Book 1

By Steven Stamm

Beneath the veil of normalcy, an invisible war is being fought. The SCP Foundation-a shadow organization tasked with securing the anomalous, containing the unexplainable, and protecting humanity from things that should not exist-stands as the last line of defense against the impossible.

But something has gone wrong. Horribly wrong.

A recursion collapse is tearing through reality. An immortal, rogue Dr. Bright-possessed by something older than time-appears across dimensions, leaving devastation in her wake. As the Foundation struggles to contain her, a cosmic, star-like entity emerges, warping space, time, and sanity itself.

Entire towns are consumed. Foundation operatives sacrifice themselves to buy mere moments. Reality fractures. Eldritch cults rise from the shadows, worshiping the Scarlet King, the King in Yellow, and entities even darker. The line between hunter and hunted dissolves as containment breaches spread like wildfire.

Welcome to Project Aephid. There is no going back.

The SCP Foundation: The Aephid Protocol is a brutal descent into cosmic horror, existential dread, and biohazard nightmares. Featuring an interconnected web of SCP anomalies, Foundation logs, brutal action, and deeply unsettling terror, this is a must-read for fans of the SCP universe, cosmic horror, and intelligent dread-soaked horror fiction.
