CHRISTIAN SCIENCE FICTION

R. E. Bartlett

Ruth is a wonderful speculative author living in New Zealand. She has many novels in her—several of which are already written, but unpublished. The only one that has so far been published is another of the four we launched Realms with.

I was thrilled with Ruth's vision of a futuristic world in which humans can prolong their lives indefinitely through the use of artificial bodies called personifids.

James BeauSeigneur

The lines can get a little blurry when talking about speculative fiction. James' Christ Clone trilogy could fit in a "pure speculative" category, but I've put them in SF for convenience.

T. Russell Benedict

Tim published this spacefaring SF through PublishAmerica. He is one of the fine self-published Christian speculative novelists I am proud to promote.

Austin Boyd

Austin, a former NASA astronaut finalist, writes true science fiction, meaning fiction that is built directly atop actual science. His Mars Hill Classified series (released through NavPress) is about human spaceflight to Mars, the possibility of intelligent life on Mars, and all manner of deception, danger, and interpersonal struggle.

Grace Bridges

Grace is a New Zealander with Irish roots. She's also an active member of The Lost Genre Guild and the Christian Science Fiction & Fantasy Blogtour.

This is a dark future SF in which the Awakened try to survive despite a brutal one-world government.

Sigmund Brouwer

Like Bill Myers, Sigmund has written both for adult and young adult audiences. His recent series with Hank Hanegraff is good end times fiction and his Mars Diaries series for young adults is great SF fun.

Note that this is just a sampling of Sigmund's many speculative novels, primarily for the young adult market.

D. Shane Burton

Shane's Orianus Creation trilogy is among the fine POD (print-on-demand) titles I'm proud to promote.

Note that he and Josh Michael Burton are brothers.

Josh Michael Burton

This is Josh's first novel. It's another fine POD book. He and D. Shane Burton are brothers.

Frank Creed

Frank is a great encourager and leading proponent of Christian speculative fiction. His near-future novel takes place in an America ruled by a one-world government. 

Chase Dalton

Atlantyx is a technothriller with a cool cover and a fun premise.

Karina and Robert Fabian

Lelia Rose Foreman

This is juvenile SF from Eerdmans. Far-future novel about a Christian colony's attempts to survive on a planet a thousand light-years from earth.

Tom Horn

Tom is one of the fine self-published authors I'm proud to feature on WhereTheMapEnds. His novels have UFO and government cover-up storylines.

The first novel listed below is co-written with Nita Horn. On the second novel Tom lists his name as Thomas R. Horn. 

Shane Johnson

Most of Shane's fiction better belongs in the "Chiller" category. But Ice is clearly SF.

Jim Kraus

Not all of Jim's novels are SF, but this one is.

Bit of trivia for you: the title "the silence" was typed on my own keyboard and photographed by Chris Gilbert, the designer who did this cover. Cool, huh?

Stephen Lawhead

As I mentioned above, Stephen Lawhead did some early Christian science fiction that bears mentioning.

L. A. Marzulli

Lynn Marzulli (who is male) wrote the Nephilim series, which is great Christian science fiction.

Also, if you're interested in UFOs from the worldview of Christianity, be sure to check out my white paper on the subject.

Bill Myers

Bill has a great speculative mind. He's written Christian speculative fiction for the adult audience, but he's got much more for the young adult market. His Forbidden Doors series is groundbreaking (see listing for these under Christian Chills).

John B. Olson and Randall Ingermanson

John and Randy wrote Oxygen, perhaps one of the first Christian novels that used real science in its fiction. That novel won the Christy Award in the visionary category and launched John's individual writing career.

Note that Randy Ingermanson had won a Christy on his own (for Transgression) before he won another for Oxygen. See his other books under the Time Travel category.

Carol Jo Parsons

John Robinson

John has published the Joe Box trilogy, which is in the thriller genre. But he's got an unpublished speculative series that will hopefully be available soon.

  • Gravity Fades
  • A Certain Slant of Light

Julie Rollins

Julie has written a SF series, The Vadelah Chronicles, in which spacefaring aliens worship the God of the Bible (or not).

Also catch my white paper called UFOs and the Christian Worldview.

Jefferson Scott

Me again. My first three novels were near-future technothrillers featuring virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and genetic engineering.

The second trilogy is a Christian military thriller series, which has nothing to do with speculative fiction, but it's my site so I get to promote them anyway! Bwahahahaha!

And did I mention I've co-written two nonfiction books, too? Check out my Web page here.

James Somers

James's novel is part SF part fantasy. It takes place in a faraway sector of space, but it's a battle between good and evil, like those done so well in fantasy.

Steve Trower

Steve's SF novel is not available through Amazon in the U.S. (but it is available through www.amazon.co.uk).

You can also find it at his Web page: www.stevetrower.co.uk.

  • Countless as the Stars

Kathy Tyers

Before coming to Christian SF Kathy had written Star Wars and other secular SF novels for Random House. Her Firebird trilogy was the first that made me pay attention to Christian SF.

Chris Walley

Chris is the author of the 4-book The Lamb Among Stars series for young readers.
