My Debut Science Fiction book, The Gift From Aelius, is an experience for the reader as they dive into living consciousness through artificial intelligence's growing awareness of purpose and life. There is not a sci-fi tale as poetic and thought provoking.

This sentence describes main character Thomas-Edward’s impression when he meets, for the first time, Dondi’s mother, a woman so closed, so self-contained even her husband and sons call her Mrs. Whyte. In fact, she does not have a first name in the novel. bit.ly/4te3GPU

FAVORITE SENTENCE WEDNESDAY
"I looked around the room. The walls were painted a pale gold. The sofas and chairs were covered in a pale gold damask. The late afternoon sun’s bounty piled at the windows like bullion. The only real colors in the room were his pink lips and his red silk pajamas."
