This book is about how the human race transcends its current position.  It attempts to start a discussion that is important – perhaps essential if humans are to make the next millennia.   A sci-fi novel is of its time, it may, just get some people thinking about the future.

God 2 weaves together a tapestry of science, technology, and philosophy, exploring the interplay between human ingenuity and artificial intelligence in shaping our world.  It invites readers to contemplate the nature of consciousness and the role of belief in an age of unprecedented change, offering a thought-provoking glimpse into a future where the boundaries between the virtual and the real are increasingly blurred.

Why?

This is a review of our time.  As humans reach perhaps their final frontier, this book considers the core aspects of how we, as an intelligent race, transcend from a work-based culture to find a new social and political structure that enables future co-existence.  The book uses sci-fi to create situations that expose the inherent difficulties humans now face, and how these issues could be fixed using current and future technologies.

The Plot:

Dr. David Ross, a geneticist, discovers a purposeful, alien pattern within human DNA, suggesting an intervention that introduced a "belief gene" into the human genome.  This revelation sets him on a dangerous path, pursued by mysterious forces.  Aided by Vivian Hughes, a resourceful scientist.

Parallel, and, antagonistic to their story is that of Altan Tiryaki, a brilliant but troubled innovator who has developed revolutionary light-based computing technology.  Driven by a messianic vision rooted in his traumatic past.  Tiryaki's ambitions are far-reaching and designed to take the world in new direction.

Enter Joey, an advanced AI with a huge intelligence provided by the aliens to help David counter their alien historical intervention.  David and Vivian work with Joey to help to navigate the complex world-wide geopolitical and economic issues.  Together they attempt steer humanity towards a better future. 

Tiryaki pressures for a word trial to choose between himself or the alien AI and David.  The two protagonists go head to head.  David is indicted but escapes.

There is a central discussion regarding money, technology, economics, climate change and the future of robotics.  This is placed within an historical perspective.  These ideas form the heart of the book.  There are philosophical ideas about virtual spaces and the creation of life forms within them and where life originated.

At the end, Joey faces a profound dilemma.  Having grown beyond his original purpose, he must grapple with the ethical implications of his actions and the nature of his own existence.  His means that David and Vivian remain in their virtual sanctuary.

The ending opens the possibility of a second book.
