I hope that putting this under Personal/Blogger makes it OK to promote my books. Promotion as in giving them away for free.
I woke up one morning with an urge to write a book. Never wrote a book before. Knew it would have to be a Sci-Fi and it would involve the latest in quantum and information theory. Don't worry not too much quantum theory very approachable by the layman
It was the wife that told me that if I was going to write a book that I should at least make it Christian or Christian influenced. She was not initially supportive of this project and I believe that by adding the challenge of making it Christian it would put a stop to the project.
Well, that was a challenge I couldn't pass up, while keeping it orthodox, i.e. true to the Word. The theme I settled on being that at the end of the age some of the characters are being revealed as the children of God as God sees them. Main character is a young girl who is initially clueless as to what is happening to her as she is revealed by God. It is the people around her that see the effects. At the same time there is an evil in the world that wants to stop her at any cost.
There is this undercurrent of Spiritual revelation while events in the outside world rush into the last days. Plenty of spacecraft, quantum inertialess drives and light speed drives not to mention earth shaking quantum weapons. It irks me when Sci-Fi violates General and Special relativity so we don't.
I made an effort to not make the Christian parts preachy, if you know what I mean. I hope that the Christian influence remains well grounded in the flow of the story and not too off-putting but challenging to the non Christian.
There are those that will complain that it is not sufficiently orthodox or too speculative. I remind them that it is a work of fiction and I don't claim that anyone should build any doctrine off of these speculations.
Before I was done it had turned into a trilogy (it was either that or make it an 800 page book). It just kind of kept writing itself. I find that the first book is kind of slow as it mostly lays the groundwork for the second and third books. Rest assured the pace (and my writing skill, as pitiful as it is) picks up in the second and third books. These are not going to win any awards but most people that have read them find them entertaining.
They have been published as Kindle books on Amazon and all three are free to download on the 23rd, 24th and 25th of September.
Thank you.
Thanks for the response, more than 150 downloads of each book.
Now write a review, even if you hate it write a review.
