THRESHOLD Reviews

***** The story brought tears to my eyes so many times I had to take breaks before I could see to continue reading. I am a joyful, recovering alcoholic. In the course of my recovery adventure I have contemplated many philosophical concepts and considered a variety of perspectives regarding mass, energy and god (lowercase “g”). This book while telling an intriguing story also touches on potential realties as yet unexplored, assuming they could ever be at all. 5.0 out of 5 stars Patrick – Amazon – July 6, 2020

***** Threshold The best kind of science fiction, this takes you on ride to ask questions, to think & wonder. Judy Kastner – Google Play – July 6, 2020

***** Threshold is an amazing book! Lkaterie Neal – Google Play – July 1, 2020

***** An engrossing story set in 2040 when the race to create Super Intelligent Artificial Intelligence is keeping the brilliant minds of the world on their toes. A fascinating world where the Stream gives people their every experience without leaving home. Thrills at every turn, Kip Wilde is willing to do all he can to cure his daughter Becca of ALS. Kept me up all night reading, reading and still reading until I could no longer keep my eyes open! Excellent world building and language creation…
5.0 out of 5 stars Jeannette A.0 SIAI – Amazon – June 17, 2020

***** THIS is not an easy read. If you start it, make sure you can dedicate time for it. Because it’s the coolest damn thing I have read in… years.. Makes what is happening now, just a small glitch in time..
5.0 out of 5 stars Cindy – Whew. Amazon – June 17, 2020

***** BEST Science Fiction Novel of 2020! I can imagine Hollywood Directors clawing at each other to make this novel into a film! It’s that good. If you are a Sci-fi fan like me, don’t miss out on this. It keeps you captivated the entire time and pulls you into the universe every page. If this book becomes a Movie, I will absolutely be buying the first ticket. New favorite author!!

Scott Falcon Interview July 10

The following is an excerpt from an interview of Scott Falcon in the book website ManyBooks, featured in a number of publications including The Guardian, USAToday, Lifehacker and The Huffington Post.

Debuting in 2020, Scott Falcon is a new American author writing cutting edge novels in different thriller genres. Scott is an avid outdoorsman, a conservation advocate, and is a member/sponsor of Wild Oceans, World Wildlife Fund, The Sierra Club, Greenpeace, International Anti Poaching Foundation, and The Sea Shepard Conversation Society. Scott lives in Ventura, California. His technothriller, Threshold, was very well received. All five-star reviews, the epic novel hit #1 in Hard Science Fiction and #3 in Technothrillers on Amazon. It also made 14 other Bestseller lists. As our Author of the Day, he tells us all about Threshold.

Please give us a short introduction to what Threshold is about.
Threshold takes place at a time in the near future when technologists are on the brink of creating an SIAI, a Super Intelligent Artificial Intelligence, also known as the singularity. It is an AI that is truly self-aware. As you might guess, things do not go well.

What inspired you to write about a world where all technology stops working, except for AI?
The power of a true singularity is unknowable, both good and bad, and one possibility is that the AI does not want the competition.

Why did you set your story in 2040?
We are at the dawn of AI, we need a bit more time for the singularity to emerge.

Celerity Now on PreOrder

Speed Kills
Celerity usually comes in second at UCLA track—the first loser, her coach would say. But she is encouraged by her father, a botanist, her only parent, and her biggest fan. Then he dies unexpectedly. Now she is alone.

While wrapping up his affairs, she learns about his expeditions of discovery to the Darién jungle and a plant that transforms indigenous tribesmen into prolific hunters … and extraordinarily fast runners.

She takes a sabbatical from college and follows his work. After weeks enduring the tropics, she finds the plant—it’s fifty feet tall and carnivorous. She returns with its extract.

Training at her local high school, her speed is increasing, and people notice. A student times her in the 100 meters—she breaks the women’s world record—videos go viral—and life will never be the same.

Approached by a flamboyant sports agent, he has a plan; there’s no money in track … try out for the Chicago Bears as a wide receiver. Nobody can touch the world’s most famous female athlete.

Then the side effects kick in.

Available worldwide July 15, 2020. eBook, Hardcover, Paperback
