His recently released fourth novel, Departure, follows the survivors of a flight that takes off in 2014 and crash-lands in a changed world.

As a kid growing up, I never missed an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation or X-Files and have to say those were a huge influence on me. They were sci fi series with complex, compelling characters that I really cared about and each episode was about a concept or idea that intrigued me intellectually. So, as a kid I was more into sports and sci fi on TV and really got into reading later in my high school and college years when I found Dan Simmons' work and others like Assimov, Crichton, Dan Brown, Douglas Preston, and David Weber. Not just the one film deal either, but two, as he’s also managed to get deal with CBS Films who want to adapt his debut novel ‘The Atlantis Gene’ along with 20th Century Fox for his book ‘Departure’. This is a long to come for the novelist who only started out in 2012, getting his work published in 2013, as he achieves his lifelong dream of making it big in the world of publishing. Originally working in internet development as he started a number of companies online, he went onto to pursue his initial passion which was writing.Q: I am very important to all living creatures. I was firstborn in the sun. I am a chapter in textbooks and I am not made of fire. I make the sun-worthy. Too much of me may kill you. But humans can still prevent me.

Dr. Emma Matthews is the commander aboard the International Space Station. For months, she has watched the world below freeze and civilization unravel. The headlines tell only half of the story. The messages from her sister tell the rest, of a world witnessing mass migrations, fighting for survival, struggling to provide a future for their children. When a catastrophe strikes the ISS, Emma faces her own fight for survival. Now the technology exists to finally unravel the code buried in the human genome. The race to find Kraus’s research has begun, and one group will do anything to find it. Authors, if you are a member of the Goodreads Author Program, you can edit information about your own books.

But that was long ago, before a curse drove the magic away. Twelve-year-old Felicity knows all about things like that; her nomadic mother is cursed with a wandering heart. With war raging around them, Emma and James fight to keep their family alive. In the cold darkness, humanity splinters. New alliances emerge. At every turn, Emma and James face new dangers--and question whom to trust.Q: There are a number of books on a shelf.

Tons of tough riddles--Build your problem-solving abilities and stretch your creative thinking skills as you unravel all kinds of perplexing puzzles. Donnenfeld isn’t one of them. His smartphone is as essential a part of his kit as food and water, with apps replacing compass, maps and even decoding ciphers. Does that ever feel like cheating? “The apps don’t ‘recognise’ ciphers,” he says. “It’s up to the human to do that. What they can do is decode them. It allows us to translate a code in a second as opposed to hours manually.” And, he adds, it’s the connection that matters – even more than the prize money itself. “I want to find the Xavier treasure, but watching my kids finding a hidden clue in artwork or coming up with a unique way of solving – that is a wonderful experience. It’s taught them about creativity, brainstorming and teamwork.”

Reyna fears the ghosts of her ancestors, who radiate anger. But she can't allow them to distract her from getting the Athena Parthenos to Camp Half-Blood before war breaks out between the Romans and Greeks. Will she have enough strength to succeed, especially with a deadly hunter on her trail? Immari International offers a different approach: do nothing. Let the plague run its course. The Immari envision a world populated by the genetically superior survivors—a new human race, ready to fulfill its destiny. Fraud by the rich wipes out 40 percent of the world's wealth. The rich get massively richer. No one goes to jail." A standalone title and one that is soon set to become a major feature from the Hollywood film studio 20th Century Fox, this was to be his science-fiction thriller mystery. Building upon a premise of intrigue, this is a novel that keeps the reader guessing right until the very end, always wondering what might be happening behind the events unfolding. Whilst it is somewhat different from his other work, it still manages to retain much of that suspense that A.G. Riddle has now become famous for. Q: There once was a book that was only owned by the wealthy, but now everyone can have it. You can’t buy it in a bookstore or take it from a library.Ambitious . . . deeply reported, highly compelling . . . impossible to put down.""--The New York Times Book Review"

Q:A teacher is yelling, she closes the door, the window, and a book. What did she forget to close? A: Her mouth.Riddle makes an effort to keep the focus on how his characters react to each other (including to their future selves) rather than to the technological marvels that reshaped their world.” Family friendly―These dad jokes are safe for the bar or breakfast table, so you can share them all―the good, the dad, and the ugly. I worried that a reissued book wouldn’t catch fire now in the same way – remember, when Masquerade was published we only had three television channels and the pubs shut for the afternoon – but Barbarisi argues that much of the allure of these books comes from “connecting to a world long vanished. A treasure map is more romantic and mysterious – and uncertain – than a set of GPS coordinates on a Geocaching hunt. These books represent a time when information was genuinely hard to come by.There are those who miss that feeling of not knowing, of the difficulty of discovery and the triumph of hard-won knowledge.”
