Black Helm Entertainment Announces New Genre Of Fiction

August 15, 2016 – – Today Philip Jepsen, CEO of Black Helm Entertainment, announced a new genre of fiction called Continuum Fiction. Introduced with the release of the “Star Angel” sci-fi pentalogy, continuum fiction is a story where any character recognizes a continuum of self. Mr. Jepsen reports that within the last decade several new genres of fiction have been introduced to further categorize types of story, and continuum fiction is an example of that trend. Author of “Star Angel”, David G McDaniel, felt it important to create a specific category of fiction to define his young adult sci-fi series.

“I’m putting it out there,” says Mr. McDaniel. “A new genre: Continuum Fiction. I may not be the first to write it, but I’m probably the first to name it. New genres eventually get created to cover new types of fiction, and each new division helps refine and define the expectations for a certain type of story.”

According to Mr. McDaniel Continuum Fiction is any story where at least one character, at some point, recognizes a continuum of existence of self, recalling with certainty having been and acted as various identities in the past, with an awareness of the distinction of self in the present, whether gained through exposure to elements in the story (revelation/epiphany) or with an existing awareness at the story’s inception.

“Continuum Fiction does not preclude cloning,” says Mr. McDaniel. “Such as Palpatine in the ‘Star Wars’ universe, or genetic streams, such as in ‘Dune’, or mechanical transference, such as the computer storage of consciousness that occurs in many sci-fi stories. However, to be true Continuum Fiction the actual individual, the true identity, the soul, the spirit — however you define it, the person themselves, the real person and who they truly are, not a body, not a brain, not synapses or neurons or genetic copies; a true reincarnation/continuation — must transit to a new awareness, body, etc.”

“Star Angel” is a five book series, known as a pentalogy, about a girl on modern Earth who meets a boy from another world and gets caught up with him in a fight for their lives, only to discover they may both be connected to events in the distant past more epic than either can imagine. Mr. Jepsen reports the fifth and final book in the pentalogy will be released in November. He invites anyone with questions on the series or on the new genre of continuum fiction to visit the Team Star Angel site.
