God Seed is a science fiction and dark fantasy novel set within Cthulhu Mythos written by David J Rodger

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

It’s a real page turner. I mean this in absolute honesty, your book is incredible.

God Seed – a new style of fiction writing, By KW (Madrid, Spain): I bought this book wanting a holiday read – the type of book that I can pick up, read a chapter, put down, and pick up again later. I did not get what I wanted – David J Rodger’s fiction is not written to read one chapter at a time. Each chapter leaves you on the egde of a cliff, too afraid to look over, but compelled against your will to do so.  A clever blend of Lovecraft influence, the desire for power, the fear of being in too deep, and a clevrly woven plot, intertwining characters each with a different agenda – all coming together for a terrifying and gripping climax.  This is the first book in what will hopefully and surely be a long and exciting career enjoyed by David J Rodger’s new fans.

Lovecraft brought screaming and thrashing into the 21st Century, by S. R. Pyne (Bristol, UK):  David Rodger has created a World where Lovecraft’s mythos enters the near future. This, one of [...] novels that he has set in a Gibsonesque environ, is a fulfilling piece of sci-fi horror, something that he evokes well. You can see the inspiration of Alien, beefed up with some Andy McNab-style action. The narrative sometimes sacrifices depth for pace, but is ultimately a fulfilling read. If you like Philip K Dick, or indeed William Gibson, and enjoyed some of Lovecraft’s genre, this will definitely appeal.

Muy bueno, By CCF  (Valladolid, España): Este libro llegó a mis manos de casualidad ya que no conocía nada del autor y he quedado gratamente sorprendida. Me ha enganchado de tal manera que lo he terminado en una semana!!!!!.Muy bueno. Os lo recomiendo.Me gustaría saber si ha publicado más títulos y algo más del escritor. Sabeis si están en las librerías españolas? Creo que el autor es británico.

DESCRIPTION:

God Seed { novel } In the near future, a documentary film-maker is covering mercenaries engaged in corporate espionage.  A nervous executive wants to smuggle stolen data to Cairo.  Yet events rapidly and frighteningly escalate out of control.  The film-maker finds himself battling for his life and his sanity as a new and dramatic story unfolds, dragging him across the globe…and beyond.

Fascist extremists, Islamic terrorists, corrupt government officials and a religious sect that worships a nefarious avatar of a many-faced God of the Outer Void, become fused into a gruesome knot of lies, treachery and mass-murder.

David J Rodger’s trademark gut-wrenching rendering of a dark and edgy reality, and relentless narrative pace, are here in palm-sweating abundance, delivered in a tense action-packed novel that plunges you uncomfortably deep into crawling chaos festering and feeding on the membrane of human existence.
