No Other Gods by John Koetsier @johnkoetsier

By Book Goodies Leave a Comment

No-Other-Gods-newer
A man without a memory. A warrior with no future. And a “god” whose reward for service is death — or eternal cold storage.

“Non-stop action! An eternal champion battles his way across centuries, gradually learning to ask the question: Why?”

– David Brin, best-selling science fiction author

No Other Gods is a cosmic battle through time and space between a man and a god — a god who seems human enough to envy. Human enough to desire what little the man possesses. And human enough to kill what he no longer requires.

Only too slowly, Geno learns that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. And that he too is not what he seems … that the warrior with no past has history, had a life. While he learns what he once knew and becomes who he really is, he also discovers he has hopes and dreams for the future — and for Livia, the woman he loves.

Too bad the gods have all the power. Too bad he is just a pawn in a cosmic game.

Too bad … for the gods.

“John is an amazing new talent to watch out for!”

– Matthew Mather, author of Atopia Chronicles and CyberStorm

“Battle descriptions are awesome and the action was pure adrenaline injected into my brain!”

– Alexandre Rocha Lima e Marcondes, Geeks with Blogs

“Pulled me into the story right away … it was actually hard for me to stop!”

Andi Gutmans, creator of the PHP programming language

“Few writers are as much a joy to read … you won’t stop!”

– Matt Marshall, editor-in-chief of VentureBeat

“An Asimov tone with a Battle Royale feel and a Game of Thrones twist!”

– Alexandre Rocha Lima e Marcondes, Geeks with Blogs

“”No Other Gods” had me hooked instantly, and I couldn’t put it down!”

– the latest review from reader David Gubbins

Targeted Age Group:
Adults, older teens

How is Writing In Your Genre Different from Others?
Science fiction is fantastical, in a sense, but it has to be rooted in some form of believable reality, or else it becomes fantasy. Worse yet, your readers could lose the ability to suspend disbelief, which would be fatal.

Also, it helps to have some knowledge of science. I do, but not nearly as much as David Brin, bestselling author and yes, practicing scientist. He read through my book and gave me pages and pages of detailed notes, almost all of which I instantly accepted 🙂

What Advice Would You Give Aspiring Writers?
Write. Then write again. And write some more.

You miss all the shots you never take, some famous hockey player once said.

Author Bio:
I’m a technology journalist, an author, and a hockey player.

I cover Apple and Twitter for VentureBeat. Most of my days are spent talking to startups and developers, and covering the latest and hottest technology news. Before journalism, I worked extensively in technology: managing teams of developers, building mobile apps, creating learning management systems, and managing products.

I have always loved science fiction, and cut my teeth on Asimov and Heinlein. I still read at least one SF book a week.

My first novel, No Other Gods, was written mainly in the wee hours of the morning, before the “real work” started. I’m hopeful, however, that enough readers will like it that I’ll be able to write full time.

I’ve also published a personal iPad app, the Wonderful Colorful House, which is the result of a bedtime story I told my daughter when she was just three.

I’m 41, live in Vancouver, Canada, and have a wife, two sons, and a daughter. I have a BA in English and a Masters in educational technology.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
I have always wanted to write a novel, and I’ve always loved science fiction, so when the idea for No Other Gods penetrated my sometimes thick skull, I just took off with it.
