I have a science fiction novel out!

[Born Of Cold Light]

Just a few days ago, science fiction novel "Rise of the Europan" was released on Amazon.  Several centuries into the future, mankind has colonized the Jupiter moon of Europa, sharing the world with the creature known as the Europan, the only truly sentient being on the world.  Increasingly angered by the humans' reckless disregard for its biosphere, it has decided to push them off the planet for good, by any means necessary.

A single, unified story written from several points of view, it features six authors, including myself.  For fans of science fiction action, horror, suspense, and weird fiction.

Congratulations! I've ordered this - I'll give it a read when I get chance. 

Which story is yours?

[Born Of Cold Light]

My story is interspersed throughout the book, as I write from the point of the view of the Europan.  The names of the chapters that I wrote are "Creed," "Crimson Coil," "A Gift of Fire," "The Swarm," "Fields of Gold," and "...And the Stars Wept."

Very cool. Have you received much interest for the novel? Praise? Criticism?

Sadly, there's only a handful of reviews out there, and sales have been sluggish.  We're going to be having a reduced price sale soon, though, so hopefully things will pick up.

It's still amazing that you accomplished this far in publishing your novel. I heard that writing a long novel itself takes a lot of dedication and isn't an easy task. And the majority of the writers don't sell a lot of books especially in this day and age when less people read books. I really like the story concept. I think given time, your novel will get much more readers when it gets known more.

I'm still working my way through other books unfortunately - and the Aliens Omnibus Volume 1 jumped that queue when it arrived - but I did buy it and I will get around to it!

I've added the Paperback to my wishlist. Just due to funds atm. But i will buy it asap

Congrats on getting published

[Born Of Cold Light]

Thanks everyone for the support.  I have to say, there were some editing problems with punctuation in a few places, but on the whole, it's quite enjoyable.

For five hundred years human exploration of space has gone largely unchallenged. Now, deep in the ocean beneath the icy crust of Jupiter's moon Europa, something is stirring...a power both ancient and wholly alien, moving in the dark places. It's power is unimaginable, its rage inexhaustible and its goal clear; to eradicate humanity.
