What really awaits us on Eden, and who are the Alicians, an ancient sect on Earth who have been biding their time...

About the author

As a young boy I watched Neil Armstrong take that 'one small step', and I began devouring science fiction, from Asimov's Foundation, Clarke's Rama and Herbert's Dune, to today's Adrian Tchaikovsky and others. The Eden Paradox grew from a short story to a four-book series, followed by my take on alien AI in the Children of the Eye series. Always on the hunt for new sci-fi, always looking up to the stars and wondering not if, but when.

I also write thrillers under the pen name, and have a separate page for those books (search for J F Kirwan).

Reviews

[Sirtaj Kang · Rating 3 out of 5]

Like an ant trying to understand a nuclear reactor, it's sometimes difficult for a mere human author to imagine the thinking of a being that is more intelligent by several orders of magnitude. This is what this book is about, and ironically also where it fails. I don't ever feel like the intelligences are all that much more intelligent in any way besides technology, and even that is mostly at the space opera level.

It does make for a good space opera though. Just don't expect hard sci fi.

Sci-fi explosions. Sci-fi murders. Sci-fi car chases. "Micah’s vision was drawn to her perfect ass in [sci-fi] stretch pants." I really tried - lured by good ratings and hints of interesting intrigues, but sci-fi Bruce Willis leaves no space for a story.

Best Sci-Fi I have read in a long time, gripping from start to finish, I couldn’t put it down.

Highly Enjoyable Interstellar Action!
