“We are living in a science fiction world.”–George Takei
Writing a book is not easy. And transitioning to an impactful Sci-Fi novel after decades of writing only non-fiction–who would do that? The first name that comes to mind is Carl Sagan . After years of writing non-fiction he wrote his amazing only novel, Contact. But here is another name to think of, and you will know the name if your are a longtime listener to Seeking Delphi: Richard Yonck.
Richard has previously visited with me to discuss his two non-fiction titles, Heart of the Machine, and Future Minds. Now he has taken his years of experience as a futurist, and his research for those previous books to create, in Mindstock, a vision of a post cyber-apocalyptic world set 35 years in the future. The attention to detail and the believability of this world make for a work worthy of a seasoned and successful writer of the genre. It is also eerily plausible based on where we find the world going today. It’s the first of a 4-book series. I’m eagerly anticipating book #2.
