Joseph A. Anderson writes speculative science fiction that blends science, older lore, and mythic storytelling to explore consciousness, belief, and the forces that shape human destiny.
His current trilogy follows a single cosmic family across shifting worlds and eras, unfolding in fast-paced, adventures through quantum theory, interdimensional space, and frequency.
The series concludes in May.

In 2027 look for a novel blending time travel, DNA manipulation and the ancient history of Werewolves.

The Future is Fiction

The role of the future in story telling

By Joseph A Anderson

To work in the realm of the future, as a storyteller, philosopher, or scientist, is to step into paradox. It can be exhilarating, even noble, to forecast chaos and issue warnings in the name of reason or art. Yet the deeper I venture into the fictions of tomorrow, the more I encounter the gatekeepers, those who patrol the boundaries of ima Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Joseph A. Anderson  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“He falls further into darkness. The stinging pain of daily torture and the numbing cold hardly bother him now, and he relishes the thought that soon he might disappear entirely. Then Lylitte is there in his thoughts again, and the splitting pain brings him back into this life, and again, only one thing eases the torment: winding further out of existence.”
Joseph A. Anderson, Eden 2:b

“The supposition was that the difference in energy when n (or v) changes by one is therefore equal to hv, the product of the Planck constant and the vibration frequency was always derived using these pre-revolution mechanics. This was, of course, dependent on gravity having an effect on an atomic level, while acknowledging that it does not. Absurd right? But for a transition from level n to level n+ one due to absorption of a photon, the frequency of the photon has nothing to do with Planck…”
“Atom, for god’s sake, stop it!” Hannah interrupts.
“Stop? Stop what?”
“Why do you do this to people?” Hannah says, causing Lylitte to laugh, and the older woman to look at Hannah curiously.
“What he was going to eventually say is that we’re teaching the stem cells to sing their songs louder so that they harmonize and teach their melody to the host, once it’s introduced,” Billy explains.”
Joseph A. Anderson, Eden 2:b

“You need to use your damned technology and make us blood. There's a war going on and unless you can do that you're kinda useless," - Hannah Khalili in book one Eden 2:b”
Joseph A. Anderson, Eden 2:b

“Better a cruel truth than a comfortable delusion.”
Edward Abbey

“There were times, while Atom slept and she was awake soothing her crying daughter, that a question itched from somewhere deep within. This "unsolved mystery" that Atom spoke of: It was all in the past, her mind insisted, as that's what her husband had promised. But she couldn't let it go, so eventually she had to ask. "Why did these ghost people emerge and then just vanish in your world?”
Joseph A. Anderson, Return to Planet Earth

“The Martians want to build a 2:b colony on Titan and not allow mixing of species, while the Bug and black market investors here on Earth want to experiment on them. Both the red and the blue planets have devilish plans for your people, I'm afraid.”
Joseph A. Anderson, Return to Planet Earth

“The sun burns, clawing its way higher and higher in the sky, scorching Lylitte's neck and shoulders. It's more than just the heat that overwhelms. Her belly feels as if it has doubled in size, and all her parts are swollen; her back is exhausted, and her joints ache. She watches from under heavy lids as an indifferent land of sparse grass, dirt, and sand give off waves of heat that look as though it will cook her and her children alive. Earth is horrendous and uncomfortable and ugly, she reflects. How will we possibly survive?”
Joseph A. Anderson, Return to Planet Earth

“I am a manifestation of your dreaming. And dangerous dreams like yours pull worlds into darkness.”
Joseph A Anderson
