The Trillionist Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 7 ratings

A Futuristic Science Fiction Novel of Ultimate Consequence.


Sage Rogan, a boy-genius from birth, is driven to greatness by a dark vision that forces him to constantly think 'outside of the box'.


As a consequence, his visions allow him to develop thousands of new and amazing innovations, all of which benefit society.


But at what price?


They come as relentless nightmares, never giving Sage a moment's rest, always demanding more; never allowing for a 'normal' life.


But, when Sage discovers his visions are actually from an ancient spirit occupying his mind, and that it has an ulterior motive, Sage realizes he's been manipulated and that everything he's created can as easily be used to destroy the world as save it.


A final battle between Sage and his internal 'dark enemy' can only have one outcome...


...and Sage can only survive annihilation if he wins!


About the Author:


Sagan Jeffries is the pen name of former world curling champ Ed Lukowich.


In addition to The Trillionsist he has published seven non-fiction books in his Trillion Theory series and has his own YouTube channel entitled 'Universe New Trillion Theory'. The series focuses on the importance of Black Holes in building the spheres, solar system, and galaxies of other cosmos.


Praise:


"Audacious, even unique,The Trillionist delivers a grand, sweeping explanation of life, the universe and everything." - Matt Hughes


"The Trillionist is an auspicious debut from a powerful new voice. Sage Rojan is a character you'll never forget." - Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of Red Planet Blues


"Sagan Jeffries is a new author, not only to me, but to the reading world. He is famous for his sporting prowess on the world scene, teaching, sports books, & guiding of his sport, which funnily enough is briefly mentioned in this book. Under his sci-fi persona, he has embarked on a new adventure. I am impressed with the story, the writing, the verbal pictures he evokes, & above all, the characters, whose goals & motivations are clear, if not always achievable in a timely manner to them. Conflicts are detailed & believable, & finally resolved in a manner which ends here, but leaves the way open for future books, which may already be in the works. I look forward to the next adventures of Sage & Tamara." - Mary Maxie, multi-published international author

About the Author

Sagan Jeffries is the pen name of Ed Lukowich, former world curling champion. The two names prevent his careers from colliding with each other.
 
The Trillionist is his first novel. He also has a companion book, Trillion Universe Theory, in the works. Though neither of these books have anything to do with the sport which made him famous he is also the author of three curling-instruction books and a coffee-table book on the sport of curling.

    This is an ambitious book, in a way taking us to the era before the big bang and taking us where consciousness resides after death. It keeps moving at a good pace. I don't like to slog through long windy descriptions, but in this case there were enough new ideas and imaginative settings that the author could have slowed down a bit and added more details.

    Just thinking about it now, in terms of the writing style, the balance between science and fantasy, and of course the protagonist, I think this could be compared to a book from the Ender saga. Of course Orson Scott Card is one of the great SF writers, but if you enjoyed that series then you might enjoy this.

    Also there is a quasi-religious aspect to this book. I'm an atheist and this didn't get in the way of my enjoyment at all. It's fiction, after all. But I suspect that if you were religious it would add an extra dimension to your enjoyment of the book -- a fairly rare thing in science fiction.

    The Trillionist by Sagan Jeffries Sage has been different since birth, more mature, brilliant beyond anyone's imagination, & driven by personal demons to always find out more, learn more, discover more, do more. Still a child, he is frustrated by the voices & images in his mind, but he takes himself from a 1930s era civilization on a far planet, to a 2010 era in the space of only a half dozen years. He is behind every great invention, including his planet's invesntion of cell phones, internet, computers & space travel.

    He takes science from merely knowing about atoms, to utilizing fission for everything we take for granted, in our time. And still the force in his mind shows him more, takes him farther, until he has no will of his own, that isn't dictated by this shadow.

    A girl, Tamara, equally brilliant, seems to be his only true north, as she calms him, assists him & keeps him grounded. Together these two young people must take on a megalomaniac who funds their R & D, but only to use it for his own ends, not the good of all. Most important of all, Sage must find a way to defeat the shadow, & take back his own life.

    Sagan Jeffries is a new author, not only to me, but to the reading world. He is famous for his sporting prowess, teaching, sports books, & guiding of his sport, which funnily enough is briefly mentioned in this book. Under his sci-fi persona, he has embarked on a new adventure.

I look forward to the next adventures of Sage & Tamara.

    I bought this book at Calgary Comic-Con, drawn in by the cover page and what was written on the back. It sounded interesting, somewhat post-apocalyptic, a genre I love to read, and I was not disappointed. I brought the book with me on vacation and found that I couldn't put it down because I wanted to know what happened next. The story follows a child from birth onward, describing him as brilliant and because of this he is treated as an outsider. However, he soon shows the world that his intelligence can create inventions that are useful to mankind. His ideas are continuously improved upon, but are they all necessary? Are technological advancements always beneficial? I found parallels with the way our world currently is with its dependence on technology.

    This novel is the story of a young man named Sage Rojan. Even from birth, Sage's parents knew that he was "different."

    In the crib, it looked like he was talking to someone. He spoke in complete sentences at a very young age. As a child, Sage would suddenly fly into a rage, for no apparent reason. He was also incredibly smart.

    The reason was that Sage had a Presence, not an actual being, living inside him. The Presence needed a technologically advanced planet, so, with its "help," Sage invented all sorts of techno-marvels. It started with a way to learn what was happening on the other side of the world. Imagine if America had technologically progressed from the light bulb to the Internet, within ten years. Sage becomes the most popular person in the world.

    The Presence thought nothing of taking over Sage's body, working it past the point of exhaustion, and letting Sage deal with the aftermath. He couldn't tell anyone about the Presence, because his popularity would vanish, and he would be thrown in the equivalent of a mental hospital. His popularity did vanish, because the Presence's single-minded determination turned Sage into a mean, rotten person.

    In space, Sage is forced to build a thing which goes very wrong. It starts moving toward Sage's planet, and will destroy the planet if it reaches it. An attempt to tow it out of the way is a failure. A plan to teleport the whole population to another world never gets going. The only possibility is for Sage to plead his case before The Artisan, the being which created the universe. Does he succeed? Does The Artisan help Sage get rid of the Presence, once and for all?

    The story is very easy to read, and does a fine job at showing a society in technological fast-forward. From start to finish, it is very much worth reading.

    Perhaps the author's theory on evolution of the universe is not that far fetched. Interesting twist on how it can be.
