Joseph Farrell

Born and raised in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Joseph P. Farrell is an American author and researcher with academic training in biblical studies, philosophy, historical and theological studies, and patristics. Sources about him consistently note that he earned a doctorate in patristics from the University of Oxford.

Farrell has written across several distinct areas, including theology, alternative history, World War II topics, science-related speculation, and the history of the Great Pyramid. His 2002 book The Giza Death Star is widely presented as his first major venture into the alternative history and science material that became closely associated with his name.

He is also described as a full-time author and researcher, and his work has been featured through outlets such as Audible, The Other Side of Midnight, and his own Giza community site. What stands out most is the mix of formal scholarship and wide-ranging curiosity that gives his books their unusual voice.
