The Crypt is a science fiction horror series by Scott Sigler. The Crew (2008) launched the series, with Shakedown (2023) and Voidstrike (2026) continuing the space-set story.
There was a fifteen-year gap between The Crew and Shakedown, which means the series effectively relaunched in 2023 for a new wave of readers. Sigler is known for his work in science fiction horror, including the Infected trilogy and the GFL series. He was also one of the early pioneers of podcast fiction, releasing novels as free audio serials.
Voidstrike (2026) continues the space horror premise into a third book. Readers who enjoy science fiction with a strong horror edge, in the vein of Alien or Dead Space, will find The Crypt series worth picking up. The long gap between books means the later entries were written by a more experienced author than the one who started the series.
