A late entry for Weekend Writing Warriors. Earlier in the week I made a teaser chapter available for Jasper. Here are a few lines from that:
“I believe…” Dex began, “I believe there is something out there greater than ourselves.”
Mayor Jasper smiled. “Can you elaborate on that for me?”
“No,” Dex said simply, grateful for the brief moment of being sure in his thoughts. “I can’t, simply because I don’t understand it.”
“You say this something is greater than us. Is it omnipotent?”
You can find the rest of the chapter here. Jasper will be available TOMORROW in print and Kindle editions. You can preorder a Kindle copy now.
Sounds like the beginning of a fine, philosophical discussion. Best wishes with the book!
Thank you very much, Veronica!
Intriguing.
Thank you!
Discussions of spiritual matters are too often neglected in SF. Sounds interesting.
Thanks, Ed!
Congratulation on the new release. Your snippet gives pause for thought.
Thank you for the kind words.
I can’t tell if I’m worried about Jasper here because he might be in danger of stepping into a trap, or delighted because a good theoretical debate might be at hand (sci-fi and fantasy of this type are some of my favorites in the genres).
