Soulwave: A Future History of Us (Short and Tall Tales Book 2) Kindle Edition

by Tom Evans (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars (10)
Soulwave tells of a fictional account of a possible near-future for the Earth and humanity. It is a sober reminder of how life on this planet is special and to be treasured.

It tells of a world where the ice caps have melted, the population has renormalised and of the cosmic joke to end all cosmic jokes - as far as humanity is concerned.

It's written to inspire people to look up in wonder and amazement and to treat every day as if it is your last. We are only here and alive by the slimmest of chances and margins. This we must be eternally grateful for.

This is a short story seed that grew into a full novel of the same name published in 2020.

Tom Evans

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Tom is an ex-BBC television engineer turned author.

In his mid-40s, he wrote a book by accident and, before he knew it, became and author's mentor specialising in clearing writer's blocks and teaching writers how to tap into unlimited creativity.

He has now morphed into an internationally renowned meditation guide on the back of the meditations that accompanied his books.

In this new decade, Töm Evans, the author of fiction is emerging, augmented by ambient music inspired by his books.

His writing is aimed at exploring what makes us creative (and what stops it). As a result, his area of research has taken him down the route of researching the esoteric and other worldly as well as cutting edge scientific thinking and research.

His aim is to take the esoteric (the occult, obscure and hidden), to demystify it and make it exoteric (known and understood). He is an engaging speaker and works both 1-2-1 with authors and in group workshop.

Tom comes with a big caveat - people who read his books find all sorts of magic starting to emerge in their lives.

    My (current) interests lay firmly in things of the "soul" or "spirit", and how this entity or energy interacts with the rest of the universe; so the title "Soulwave" was enticing. As I began reading, I was pleasantly surprised to read "cosmic jokes" before really getting into the story. Mr. Evans' writing is interesting, often amusing, and most importantly (for me), he succinctly describes some very complicated astro physics themes and theories in terms I can easily understand without boring me to tears. I won't tell you anything about the story. That's something you need to read for yourself and I avoid giving anything away whenever possible. I will say this, though...the end was a huge surprise, and I sincerely hope that Mr. Evans will be publishing more on this subject in the very near future!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Little Gem of a Short Story
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 4, 2014
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    A lovely short story. It immediately grabs the attention and holds it there. Well put together and entertaining. I can't wait to read the full novel when it comes out!

    This little gem tells of a possible near future for earth and its inhabitants. We are only here and alive by the slimmest of chances and margins. It will take only the slightest shift in the current delicate balance for everything to change.

    It does need a further proofread (only for minor points) and a tiny tweak on the editing, again nothing major.

    Still, the whole thing is so good, it gets Five Stars from me!

    Bravo, Mr Evans.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Tempting Taste of Things to Come...
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 28, 2013
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Soulwave is a short novel with a fast pace, which is designed to whet the appetite for Tom's expanded and expanding visionary work in progress, and it certainly does just that.

    The self-contained story is well-researched, fantastical and compelling, woven through with hints of possible plot twists, and gives just enough hints about the characters to encourage anticipation of what is yet to come.

    And it just could be a future that is waiting to happen, hidden in plain view. Mind-opening and thought provoking.

    Highly Recommended.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and original speculative scifi about life on Earth and Mars
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 18, 2015
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    A wry scifi story, imagining the end of life on Earth as we know it, as the same time as we begin to colonise Mars. While focusing on the lives of a few individuals, Evans also takes a step back from the human perspective to view such destruction in a matter of fact manner as just another "reboot" of life on Earth, one of a series of mass extinctions.

    He also finds room for interesting and innovative details, such as the notion of using nanobots for building in the future, programmed to quarry stone by eating it then regurgitating it on the proposed building site in the shape of the new building.

    I also really liked his suggestion of renaming prehistoric eras to have more meaning for the average man in the street, e.g. the age of amphibians, the age of reptiles, the age of mammals - which would also remind us of our place in the greater scheme of things.

    An entertaining reminder to live for the moment, even though his projected date for this calamity is well beyond the lifespan of anyone alive today! Great fun while also providing serious food for thought. I'll certainly be reading more by this author, having also enjoyed his "100 Years of Ermintrude".

    I loved this book, brilliant written by Tom Evans, a mix between reality and sc fi...but so much more for me, the possabilities of this becoming reality in the future...wow...I cannot wait till the entire book is written and published, for me on a par with Julian May from the Diamond Mask series...
