Having lived for six billion years in a world of infinite potential, a world where technology has made it possible to practically live forever, An, one of the Ancients, has grown utterly weary of his existence. With a heavy heart, he leaves Ki, his beloved, and embarks on one final journey to Earth, the cradle of civilization and the planet where he was once born. There, he intends to conclude his life, as Earth now only has days before it will be engulfed by the dying sun… An and Ki – At The End Of Time is an epic, surrealistic tale of love, loss, and the quest for an answer to the ultimate question: what, then, is the meaning of life after you have experienced everything? With colorful characters, an exploration of mind-bending technologies, and a poignant meditation on what it means to be alive, this book will leave you pondering the heavier questions far beyond the final page. David Sikter is a Swedish computer scientist and science fiction writer. The story of An and Ki was originally published as part of the collection Technocalypsis, but now, for the first time, it is also being released as a stand-alone novel.

If you could live forever, would you want to? This is the story of Anita and Kimmo and their struggle against cancer; of Aender and Kiyoshi and the first interstellar war, and of An and Ki and Earth’s last days. Intertwined, these three stories take the reader on a journey from Stockholm in the year 2016 to the end of time; a story about the breathtaking possibilities offered by the development of artificial intelligence and mind upload. “No one is ever really gone. Everything is connected. To be alive – that is to be part of something so big and so complicated that we will never fully understand it.” Technocalypsis is the third book from Swedish computer scientist and sci-fi writer David Sikter’s epic trilogy Let There Be Gods, a compelling and evocative vision of the future of humanity in the age of sentient machines.

The year is 2074. For a decade, the technology for mind upload has existed. Anyone who wants to – and has the means to do so – can now stave off death by having their brain scanned and uploaded to the grid; a virtual, digital world. Society is divided over the new technology, but Anders Helmemyr, one of the proponents of the transhumanist movement, is hopeful. He dreams of a day when this technology will be available to everyone. When a devastating terrorist strike rocks the world, Tiina Björk, expert investigator at the Swedish Security Service, is assigned to a manhunt for a mysterious hacker suspected of being involved in the attacks. But the investigation creates more questions than it does answers, and the curious interest from other security services suggests all is not as it seems, and something much bigger is going on. Introdus is the second book from Swedish computer scientist and sci-fi writer David Sikter’s epic trilogy Let There Be Gods, a compelling and evocative vision of the future of humanity in the age of sentient machines.

The year is 2048, and Anders Helmemyr has just started studying computer science in Uppsala, Sweden. Amidst political activism, a complicated love life, and the thrills of student nightlife, he meets Niklas, a computer genius who began his Ph.D. in artificial intelligence at the age of 18. Niklas has a secret: he’s conducting illegal research on a home-built neurosimulator, trying to create an artificial consciousness – a program that thinks and feels like humans do. Anders is drawn into the project, and together they develop Niklas’ brainchild, Leo. However, neither of them knows just what the repercussions for their creation will be. Politics, and life as they know it, are about to change for all time. Autogenesis is the first book from Swedish computer scientist and sci-fi writer David Sikter’s epic trilogy Let There Be Gods, a compelling and evocative vision of the future of humanity in the age of sentient machines.
