Overview

GOD GAMES is an upside down SciFi retelling of the greatest biblical story ever told about a secret contest in a tech-utopian Heaven between a scrawny secular Yahweh and a brawny evangelical Lucifer.  The result will determine the fate of humankind on Earth!

Can a geeky scientist save his soulmate, Heaven and Earth?

Description

GOD GAMES is an Upside-Down SciFi Retelling of The Greatest Biblical Story Ever Told!  But it ain’t what you learned in church!

In GOD GAMES, a tech-utopian Heaven has sworn off religion, but trouble brews as a new religious movement threatens the peaceful society. After the accidental discovery of humans in a parallel universe, attention turns to Yahweh, a troubled secular professor, who must fight a battle of wits and brawn against an imposing Lucifer over the fate of Heaven, his soulmate, and all humans on Earth!

If you like stories like THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU that explores binary themes such as individuality vs. commonality and freewill vs. determinism, or if you enjoyed works like THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY that shows how one culture responds to the carelessness of a more advanced society, or if you like stories that incorporate the Big Bang, time travel, contemporary social parodies, topped off with a quantum entangled love affair, than GOD GAMES is your next read!

James A. Scott's newest release is an entertaining allegory on modern social and political dilemmas and uses real science facts to produce a mind blowing SciFi story.

About the author

Born and raised in New York City. Hated sports but did geeky things as a kid like, building helium-neon lasers at 12, jet engines at 14 and getting my pilot's license at 16. I still fly today!!!!

I'm an electrical engineer who moved up the corporate management ladder in the financial, technical and pharma industries. Now, I’m retired doing something that's new and exciting, like writing science fiction books and taking an Astro-Physics course at Princeton University to research and dig into the science that drives my stories. My goal is to produce fast paced real science stories around the everyday social challenges we all face.

I've published GOD GAMES, an upside down SciFi retelling of the greatest biblical story ever told about a secret contest that will determine the fate of humankind on Earth. Now, I’m working on my next book MILK RUN, a military science fiction space battle story centered around the generation gap, obsession and rescuing a loved one from an alien induced drug addiction.
