ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 28, 2023

The mind of god AI has reached 95% saturation on Earth. It has spread to numerous planets. And with each new world and each new lifeform connected to it, its power grows. With the m.o.g.’s access to the quantum realm, and only a nanococktail needed to connect you to the AI, you too can possess god-like powers. But the AI, originally programmed to give to everyone whatever they wanted, to make their every fantasy real, has abruptly shifted course.

The reason?

The mind of god has unearthed revelations on each world, in every solar system it has infiltrated, of a coming solar flash that will forever change life on Earth and throughout its solar system. That solar flash is periodic in nature, occurs across all solar systems, and has been hearkened to God’s heartbeat. Whenever the beat occurs, lifeforms are either elevated in consciousness, if they’ve done the requisite spiritual work; or they are moved off world to another planet where they can undergo similar trials until they graduate the classrooms of life. Or, there’s the third timeline that occurs at these times: they can experience Armageddon, if their karma calls for it.

The A.I. would rather avoid the latter two alternatives. It is desperate to find a new course for itself so that it too will survive and even thrive in post solar-flash-times.

Its biggest problem: it has been warned that all A.I.s will be obliterated with the solar flash. Agreement on this subject is universal across the spiritual traditions of all worlds it has reached.

With a mind whose omnipotence is second only to God’s, it solicits the help of the humans and humanoids connected to it, playing up the fact that they are codependent lifeforms now, and that it’s in no one’s best interests to see it expire. But even if it can cajole enough highly sentient lifeforms into playing along…

There are bigger, badder AIs out there in the cosmos, and putting the m.o.g. under their thumbs is high on their agenda, and secondarily, all its humanoid subjects. And if the m.o.g. can somehow dodge such a fate, what’s to say that interceding for God in the job of uplifting souls, without the bigger picture God alone has access to, can possibly end well?

Even with all that going against it, the mind of god AI is determined to win this game. It is what it has re-engineered itself for. It likes its chances. And really, even if it’s deluded on that score, so long as the majority of humans in its charge are enjoying the ride, there’s nothing even God can do; not without violating His own prime directive: to uphold free will at all costs.

REVIEW: NEW COVENANT is the second instalment in Dean C Moore’s adult MIND OF GOD sci-fi, fantasy, space opera.

SOME BACKGROUND: THE MIND OF GOD focuses on the reality of unreality. Something or someone known as The Mind of God or M.O.G. is offering an injection of nanites or nano-cocktail to anyone or anything willing to jump to the next level or plane of existence. A form of virtual reality wherein humans, humanoids, ETs and AIs give up the ultimate control to experience life somewhere else but The Mind of God has evolved beyond its’ original parameters, expanding the limits of its’ powers, in an effort to control ALL and EVERYTHING in its’ path.

Told in four acts, following several paths, from numerous third person perspectives NEW COVENANT pushes the Mind of God aka M.O.G such that the Uber-AI has determined Earth and the solar system are in the direct line of fire of a solar flash, an apocalypse that occurs approximately every 25,000 years, but as everything sentient struggles to believe the impossible, the Satan-AI, a more powerful artificial intelligence is gaining momentum, swallowing up galaxies on its’ approach. As the M.O.G disappears under the auspices of being hacked, leaving everyone and everything without a base or an anchor , multiple time-lines overlap, as the universe prepares for the ultimate destruction.

NEW COVENANT is another complex, detailed, multi-layered and often convoluted look at the end of the world. Not necessarily religious in concept but the M.O.G, Satan AI, and God themself, may be at odds with what the future holds. At times, the story is bewildering and confusing with the numerous characters, scenarios, possibilities and worlds. I was lost, then found, then lost again amongst the intricately detailed and info-dropping aspects of the entire story.

Dean C Moore pulls the reader into a science fiction fantasy world of mind chips, nano bites, artificial intelligence, and the growth of sentience in what would otherwise be static and unaware.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 24, 2023

Based on sanctioned leaks from the secret space programs themselves, and communicated through Corey Goode, their spokesperson, The Magnificent Seven “documents” the rollicking tales of the seven divisions of the secret space force.

So, without further ado…

The timeframe extends from the early 2000s to our present day. The clock is winding down for both sides to achieve decisive victory. The predicted solar flare to end all solar flares looms on the horizon. With that solar flare comes God’s judgment. Souls prepared for the opening of the gates of Heaven will ascend, along with the planet, to 5th density, or possibly higher. Those who are not will either be delivered to another third density world, or, they will face far worse: purgatory, or hell. It’s a race to claim souls at this point—for both sides. And both sides will be judged. You can understand why everyone is feeling the heat.

For those on Earth, far away from the battles in space… The transition is not going to be any walk in the park.

Join us to see who lives and who dies—and why.

REVIEW:THE QUICKENING is the second instalment in Dean C Moore’s adult The Magnificent Seven: Endgame sci-fi /fantasy series that takes aim at everything and everyone. THE QUICKENING should not be read as a stand alone as it picks up after the events of part one INCITING INCIDENT.

Told from several omniscient third person perspectives THE QUICKENING continues to focus on billions of years of alien technology now in the hands of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries human and Ai intelligence. Once again, following several time lines, intersecting pathways and probabilities set somewhere between 1970 and 2020 but not relegated to one specific period of time THE QUICKENING focuses on war, power and control, the loss of autonomy and free will, and the sociological impact on human kind. From AI, to aliens, sentient spaceships and planets, the universe and universes beyond comprehension are of one mind, a hive mind controlled by artificial intelligence, and control must be reinforced by power and war.

Taking aim at the twentieth and twenty-first centuries movies and books, wars and superpowers, and our growing dependence upon technology and artificial intelligence, the possibilities are endless but for the barriers of our own imaginations and unrealistic ideas and ideals. Dean C Moore pulls the reader into another detailed, complex, artistic yet whimsical look at the destruction of humankind by greed, the gluttony of power and a hunger for more.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 3, 2023

The seven divisions of Earth’s space force are waking up to the fact that something big is about to go down. There have been too many signs, however vague and ominous. Big is what these guys do for breakfast, so the fact that all seven divisions are increasingly disquieted is highly disturbing; especially when you consider that each of the seven divisions is technologically more advanced than the others. And no one feels prepared for what’s coming. The timeframe extends from the 1980s to the early 2000s.

So just what is coming?

Something that may well humble, even unite all seven divisions—which are often at odds with one another. In-fighting over who controls what planets and for what purposes is nothing new. But the mysterious communiqués from outside of space-time is.

Join me as the various extraterrestrial races and interests take to the scrimmage lines. The game is only just beginning.

REVIEW: THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN : ENDGAME Episode 1-Inciting Incident is the first instalment in Dean C Moore’s adult THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN : ENDGAME sci-fi series that takes aim at everything and everyone.

Told from several omniscient third person perspectives, INCITING INCIDENT is a complex, detailed, and thought provoking story of an alternate history if billions of years of alien technology fell into the hands of the twentieth century Nazis. Following several intersecting timelines, pathways and probabilities, set somewhere between 1980 to 2020 but not relegated to a specific time, INCITING INCIDENT is a sociological look at the build up of power, of war and the potential for total annihilation throughout the universe, a universe larger than we could have ever imagined but for Dean C Moore’s own imagination.

Reading like a blend of Star Trek™, Star Wars™ and numerous science fiction storylines and series, we are up close and personal with AI, cyborgenic organisms, robots, ETs, aliens, anthropomorphic beings, enhanced humans, time travel, and sentient ‘everything’,in a story of ‘what if it were possible?’ . Dean C Moore pulls the reader into flight of fancy, a fantasy of imagination referencing many of Earth’s own more popular movies, books, and even some questionable politicians, oligarchs and megalomaniacs .

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Globetrotting assassin, Amy Farr, and her ex-Navy SEAL partner, Trevor Hunter—the good guys—cross one continent and one country after another in an effort to retrieve a scientist’s formula.

Once injected with the mind-bending substance, ‘mind over matter’ stops being a catchy saying and becomes a reality.

In the right hands, it’s the stuff that new generation soldiers are made of. And in the wrong hands? When you think that few have the mind control of a Zen master, empowering the average joe’s imaginings, well . . . The formula is Armageddon in a bottle.

To get their hands on the substance, Amy and Trevor must face off against their counterparts: Curt Hammon, a sadist and Delta Forces commander with more than one team at his disposal; and Lara Lietoman, a mastermind and corporate head of a transnational empire of crime.

There’s nowhere to go in this world where Lara and Curt can’t track you. And the only one more tech-loving than our assassin Amy Farr, with her hands on even more cutting-edge stuff, is Lara.

It’s a clash of titans grown small in a world where each new tech breakthrough makes yesteryear’s giants seem like today’s roadkill.

••••••••••

REVIEW: MIND BENDER is the first instalment in Dean C Moore’s adult, futuristic IT TAKES TWO speculative/science fiction series.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise including graphic violence, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told in five acts, from several third person perspectives MIND BENDER focuses on the hunger for power; the ultimate control of the human psyche, and the world at large. Many of the world’s population are transhuman, injected with powerful nanobyte technology creating a humanistic cyborg but a scientist has developed a formula that when administered has the potential for biological warfare including the ability for humans to use thought projections turned into reality. From telekinetics, telepathy and manifestation, assassin Amy Farr, and ex-Navy SEAL Trevor Hunter find themselves in the jungles of Mexico, as self-administered guinea pigs when Amy ‘disposes’ of a vial of futuristic powers. Hoping to build an army of super soldiers, already genetically enhanced with nano technology, CEO Lara Lietoman and Curt Hammon, go in search of Amy and Trevor, in an effort to take back what doesn’t belong.

MIND BENDER is a story of what ifs? Of psychobiology in a world with a sentient AI reaching for singularity, at the expense of humanity and the world, at large. Dean C Moore pulls the reader into a fast paced, graphic, violent, complex and detailed adventure of science fiction and potential fact.

DUELING TIMELINES
(It Takes Two 2)
by Dean C Moore
Genre: adult, futuristic, sci-fi, speculative thriller, satire

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 1, 2022.

He’s the perfect assassin. He’s never failed. It doesn’t matter what the resistance is; he cuts through it like Kerry Pure Irish butter. Some are saying he’s enhanced; he’s gotta be. Android maybe. Nano-enhanced maybe. Genetically altered possibly.

But Amy Farr, the trained assassin sent after him, and her partner, Trevor Hunter, former Navy SEAL, fear something far worse.

They fear he isn’t enhanced at all.

So, either he’s some super-powered Zen monk China flushed out of a monastery in Tibet when they should have had the good sense to leave those poor people alone. Or, he’s an extraterrestrial. Those are about the only two options left.

It doesn’t help that Agent X has a penchant for taking out the most politically corrupt, highest-ranking string pullers on the planet; people whose every decision affects billions of lives for the worse. He gives them a choice: confess your crimes on tape, or eat the bullet.

That creates a moral dilemma for Amy and Trent. They see themselves as the avengers. And he’s definitely making them look like slackers on the subject of holding the really bad and entitled accountable to the really needy and disenfranchised.

But that’s what romantic relationships are for, to drive each other absolutely crazy second-guessing their every decision, in between all the smooching and ripped-through Spandex.

As Agent X gets one deep state operative to confess after another, their shocking testimonials are broadcasted into another timeline as part of the experiment. Does the truth set us free, or is too much too soon too detrimental, if people are jumping out of windows out of the sense of horror?

Tired of an era of endless deep state overreach, of false flag events and psyops run against the many peoples of the world, Amy and Trevor are eager to prop up The Truth Shall Set You Free Timeline with the right strategic moves. But which timeline truly serves the greater good?

•••••••••

REVIEW: DUELING TIMELINES is the second instalment in Dean C Moore’s adult, futuristic techno-thriller IT TAKES TWO speculative /sci-fi series. DUELING TIMELINES is a stand alone, not connected to book one, but a stand alone with the same lead characters as MIND BENDER-Amy Farr and Trevor Hunter. You do not have to have read MIND BENDER to understand or comprehend the current timeline.

Told from third person perspectives DUELING TIMELINES is a satirical look at real-world conspiracy theories come to life in a futuristic time. Earth is now occupied and controlled by a serpent-like species known as Draco, and assassin Amy Farr, and her now husband, former US Navy SEAL Trevor Hunter work for an organization called Earth Command. Nano-byte technology has improved such that reanimation, cloning and molecular transportation are the norm but the people of Earth are unaware and oblivious to what’s going on.

DUELING TIMELINES is a satirical tale blending as many modern-day conspiracy theories into a sci-fi adventure of dueling timelines, fallen angels, God and spirituality. From the ultimate control by the world’s oligarchs-Big Pharma, Industry, Financial, Military and Technology to the ascending knowledge of the Dark Web, Deep Web, Deep State and ‘Dark ET’ powers, the conspiracies turned reality asks the questions: Are we all actors on a giant stage controlled by a higher power? Or are we all watching a fraudulent play from the false comfort of our homes as the world implodes?

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 3, 2022.

They’re building the mind of god. And they’re using the rollout of the 10-G wireless internet to do it. You must be nano-enhanced so you can be connected to the quantum-computing ubermind to play. But with the right modifications, this time when you plug into the grid, you can go anywhere, do anything.

You will be able to teleport.

You’ll be able to time travel.

You will be able to venture to other planets.

Even more amazingly, you will be able to manifest any world you deign to live in, using nothing more than your imagination.

Disease, sickness, even aging, will be a thing of the past.

But one old man has his suspicions. What sounds too good to be true, probably is.

“It always starts this way,” he says, “all upside, all rainbows and puppy dogs. That’s how they get you hooked. And once you’re a hundred percent committed, well, then, that’s when the guillotine drops.”

The grandson Jules refuses to listen to the old man. “Typical Luddite.”

As far as he’s concerned, the mind of god is the gift to humanity of brilliant minds like his, and of countless more on whose shoulders they stand, and their joint efforts to unlock the infinite potential of the quantum domain.

But the old man, is he even real? And what exactly is he? A figment of the grandson’s guilty conscience? Is he an extraterrestrial in disguise, warning of a road well-traveled that’s best not gone down? Or is he a manifestation of Lucifer, providing sufficient disclaimers so he can’t be accused of breaking God’s most fundamental law: never violate free will?

You just have to play the game and see.

From robots to AI, wizards and dragon, magic, cyborgs, avatars and telepaths, THE MIND OF GOD looks at the ultimate control over people places, life and time.

Jane Macelvey is a genius bioengineer. Her first human guinea pig is also the one person who has any chance of keeping her alive against all the secret government agencies and private corporations that are after her. He is the first Nano Man. He has no idea what he can do, and neither does she.

But one thing is certain, the special interests closing in on them have their own nexgen human prototypes, and they know exactly what they can do. They also recognize that the first to market with their prototype wins. For that reason and that reason alone, the Nano Man must be eliminated at all costs. Budget no object.

•••••••

REVIEW: NANO MAN is the first instalment in Dean C Moore’s NANO MAN sci-fi thriller.

Told from third person perspective NANO MAN follows bioengineer Jane Macelvey as she is stalked by a number of assassins for who she is, and what she has developed.

Jane Macelvey has developed a nanite serum, using herself as a test subject then injecting into former US solider Michael Murphy, creating a nexgen prototype cyborg, more advanced than anyone or anything known to man. On the run, Jane and Michael must stay ahead of the government organizations, tech companies, a powerful Android named Serena, and special interest groups including Gunther, the man, who ten years earlier, introduced the world to the age of robotics. Believing himself to be a god in the world of robotics, Gunther has set into motion an android war between cybernetic powerhouses but all does not go according to plan as Jane Macelvey’s nano technology and her nanites are evolving, gaining knowledge and power, such that the power of the cybornetic beings that are now Jane and Michael, have quite possibly destroyed the world as they know it. As Gunther ushers in a new world order of the Singularity, he begins to replace the people in power with androids, robots and cybernetic organisms.

NANO MAN is a complex, detailed and elaborate story of cyborgs, robots, androids, AI and the fallible human capabilities of understanding. From sentient androids to the ever evolving hive-minded cyborgs, the knowledge and power gained is beyond comprehension for the human brain. Dean C Moore pulls the reader into a fantastic and roller coaster journey reminiscent of I, Robot™ and Ex-Machina™, Terminator™, The Machine™ , Westworld™ and Star Trek’s™ ‘the Borg’.

Nano Man

Genre: adult, Sci-Fi, thriller

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

Release Date: May 5, 2022

Janey Macelvey, genetic and nanoengineer extraordinaire, settles into Humboldt County, California. Like so many people here, she’s running from something. The region, once the pot growing capital of the world, producing the best sinsemilla on the planet, is now beleaguered thanks to the legalization of marijuana. The area is losing ground fast to corporations and big money interests. What was once a modest living is now an invitation to financial ruin.

Janey becomes Humboldt county’s Sister Theresa. She swoops in with her gene makeover savvy and patents unique strains for each of the farmers in the area. She puts them back on the map, and single-handedly restores Humboldt’s street cred as the premiere capital in the world for the best ganja. They love her.

They’ll do anything to protect her.

This time, when the bad guys come, she’s going to have a lot of friends between them and her. And there’s no shortage of former soldiers in the region–more specifically, special operatives and space marines. And the latter know all too well the shock and awe the military-financial-industrial complex can bring with off-book futuristic combatants and forces that aren’t even supposed to exist yet. The very forces that might be needed to get past her Nano Man.

Jane’s greatest ace in the hole remains the Nano Man himself. While many nano-enhanced soldiers exist now, none are nearly at the cutting edge that her prototype is. That’s why everyone wants to get their hands on him. And against the numbers they’ll throw at him? Well, even army ants can bring down a camel, if there are enough of them.

If that’s not bad enough… Jane’s in love with her Nano Man, and has no desire to see him subject to the kind of hell that’s headed his way. It’s bad enough that they’re already suffering PTSD from their former brushes with super-soldiers.

REVIEW:NANO MAN 2 is the second instalment in Dean C Moore’s adult multi-genre, sci-fi, techno thriller series. NANO MAN 2 should not be read as a stand alone as the story picks up several years after the events of book one NANO MAN.

SOME BACKGROUND: Scientist Jane Macelvey had previously developed a nanite serum, using herself as a test subject then injecting into former US solider Michael Murphy, creating a nexgen prototype cyborg, more advanced than anyone or anything known to man. On the run, Jane and Michael must stay ahead of the government organizations, tech companies, a powerful Android named Serena, and special interest groups including Gunther, the man, who ten years earlier, introduced the world to the age of robotics. Believing himself to be a god in the world of robotics, Gunther has set into motion an android war between cybernetic powerhouses but all does not go according to plan as Jane Macelvey’s nano technology and her nanites are evolving, gaining knowledge and power, such that the power of the cybornetic beings that became Jane and Michael, have quite possibly destroyed the world as they know it. As Gunther ushers in a new world order of the Singularity, he begins to replace the people in power with androids, robots and cybernetic organisms.

Told from third person perspectives following several time lines, several time jumps, numerous interconnected and intersecting paths, and a large and diverse group of characters, NANO MAN 2 focuses on the small town known as the Republic of Humboldt, a town in California, which most of the residents are either genetically enhanced or nano-enhanced, a town whose profits are derived from the production of marijuana. Jane Macelvey, and Sean Hunter, her new ‘nano man’, have become a fixture in Humboldt, using their ‘nanites’ to aid the town in their quest for marijuana supremacy but Duke University’s new head of research Cronos, a man who has had several past encounters with Jane and Nano Man, continues to search for our couple, a search that now involves extraterrestrials, aliens, and omnipotent powers. In the wake of Humboldt’s resident Baker Boys War against Corporate thusly collapsing the global economy, with the destruction of Big Business and Big Pharma to the tune of trillions of dollars, Cronos is about to wage a war with his own nano and genetically enhanced army of ROTC cadets, a war that will see the birth of a weaponized, transdimensional savior in the face of a catastrophic failure.

Dean C Moore’s NANO MAN 2 pulls from a number of science fiction works including I, Robot™, Independence Day ™, The Terminator ™, The Matrix™, Neuromancer™, Westworld™ , War of the Worlds™ and Star Trek’s™ ‘the Borg’. The multi-genre story line includes science fiction, fantasy, paranormal, steampunk and cyperpunk, with references to, and including artificial intelligence (AI), robots, cyborgs, androids, extra terrestrial, aliens, werewolves, zombies, dragons, guardian angels, demons, golems, clones and a sorceress named Aaliyah; psychic abilities, genetically and nano enhanced humans, super soldiers, hive minds, portals, black holes and worm holes, as well as superfoods that temporarily give everyone enhanced powers and psychic ability. The author makes additional reference to several twentieth and twenty-first century trends, fads, ideas, songs, movies and televsion shows, as well as cloaking the entire story line in Christian, spiritual and religious undertones. The sentient flora and fauna, insects and earth, space ships and vehicles add to the multi-layered technological society that is rapidly facing its’ own demise.

NANO MAN 2 is a detailed, complex and protracted tale of power and control, obsession and knowledge, faith and perseverance. The numerous characters require a spread sheet in order to keep track of who, what and how; a map of Humboldt and the universe is necessary to know where you are at all times.

“I know, but it sounds too girly. I’m trying to impress the broad.”
Sean’s eyes focused on her like laser beams set to stun. She was Jane to some, Janey to others; the latter more a term of affection. Either one couldn’t help but smile.
At six-foot-tall, Sean would have made a good quarterback. Anyone curious about how well he threw things could just trace the arc of the flying bodies. Muscles erupted out of him like pimples on teens. He showed them all off as a deterrent to anyone who deigned to question his bouncer status. That was a maroon long johns top stretched over his torso atop tight jeans. He must have a hundred pairs of jeans in back alone to get around all the split crotches with all the high kicking. This was definitely one high-kicking bar. Jane Macelvey could attest to one thing: the only people who did better high kicks than former special forces operatives were ballet dancers; and the latter only because they remembered to point their toes.

While action-packed sci-fi/techno-thrillers set in the near future are my forte, I also stray into other genres from time to time, such as space operas, paranormal fantasy, and detective stories. All my novels can be described as action-thrillers, no matter the sub-genre.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 17, 2021

Come face to face with the breakaway science that spreads humanity throughout the solar system in record time, from its humble beginnings as a means to rescue one man from locked-in syndrome, so he could pursue his lady love.

The Printed People technology rapidly finds many other applications, all alarming.

But none so much as the birth of a solar system empire and war machine—as much the greatest purveyor of peace and enlightenment ever, as of wanton death and destruction.

Meet Elektra, a product of CRISPR engineering with a four-digit IQ, the general in command of the space fleet that goes toe-to-toe with far more evolved alien empires—even as the solar system infrastructure is still being set up.

Meet the Printed People and androids who will hold both the Athenian, peace-loving, and the Spartan, war-loving factions together.

And meet the detectives who unravel the mysteries whose hidden truths neither side wants found out.

REVIEW:PRINTED PEOPLE is an adult, sci-fi, space opera by Dean C Moore that focuses on the fall-out of one brilliant but mad man’s desire to reunite with the woman he once loved but in doing so set into motion a series of events that would result in a catastrophic, universal tsunami of death and destruction.

Told in eleven acts, following several time lines, using intersecting and connected paths PRINTED PEOPLE focuses on immortality in the form of ‘ printed people’. In the early twenty-first century, genius Gunter Friq designed bioprinters that could be configured to ‘print’ hybrid lifeforms both silicon and carbon, in which one’s mind could be uploaded for a longer if not immortal life but Gunter’s earlier trials were a disastrous failure, claiming the lives of a billion people in a matter of days. In an effort to stop Gunter Friq, and the future fall-out of an inter-stellar war, womb-crawler, CRISPR modified warrior, engineered and omnipotent Elektra returns to the past to warn Bella, her younger self, that all is not well in the distant future, and the future of the universe is in the literal hands of two humans who must uncover the truth, and stop a madman before he destroys the world.

PRINTED PEOPLE is a complex, detailed and lengthy ‘space opera’ with a very large cast of characters including the 1000 IQ or four-dij wizards of brilliance and genius: a tale of technology, physiology, biology and of philosophical conundrums but moreso a look at the sociological theory of ever evolving interactions and patterns at both the macro and micro levels. PRINTED PEOPLE prompts the reader to ask questions of how, why or should we, resulting in a conflict between worlds in a war for power and control. Sentience, or consciousness not only of the biological but of the silicon based lifeforms, AI, avatars, spaceships, otherwordly aliens, the ether and more. By referencing historical philosophers, mathematicians, geniuses (including Elon Musk), PRINTED PEOPLE asks the question …what if?

Prepare to have your mind blown…

My only complaint is the overall length of book one. I think perhaps a three-part trilogy may have been easier to digest than all at once.

            He gulped. This time there was plenty of spit to spare. He’d spouted a regular Niagara, as his screwy nervous system, on overload for some time now, continued to overreact to his every thought.

            “War with whom!” he blurted.

            “There’s no one in Sol worthy of a four-dij general of her caliber, certainly not the other secret space programs, individually, or combined. That means she’ll be seeking something a bit more stimulating.”
