The Quantum Love Gene, by Rev. Raymond J Pilon, BGS, ret. CSL
A gift from ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
nenya_kanadka via my request for weird books. I believe she got it for a quarter at a nun shop. Thanks! I think.
As you can tell from the cover, the disclaimer stating that This book is a Fantasy Sci-Fi, and the author’s alphabet soup credentials, this book was self-published; in this case, in print before ebook self-pub became a thing. You’ve seen books like this. They have dolphins and hot pink double helixes on the cover.
And now, I have read – well, skimmed - one so you don’t have to!
It begins, as they often do, with an explanation of how it all was dictated to the author in a series of dreams by Angelica, a being from the Pleiades, how lots of famous (not really) people agree that this is the truth, and how scientific discoveries/history/the pyramids prove it!!!!
This introduction is notable for the author explaining that he ate six mini-bananas while writing down the first dream; he will return to this later. Rather endearingly, each chapter is punctuated with his reactions to the dreams with comments like “Wow! This is so exciting! I can’t wait to find out more!”
The story (such as it is) begins with David, a prodigy who is telekinetic, telepathic, graduates from Harvard with three PhDs at the age of 16, and invents a universal translator and antigravity, and solves the energy crisis by age 18. This does not play into the plot (such as it is) as much as one might imagine.
The story is interrupted by a pair of full-page black and white diagrams of the Pleiades which prove that this is all totally real.
Special Agent Stafford said to Dr. Reinhardt, a psychiatrist, “I’m with NSA. Mr David Chartrand is a National Security risk. It will be necessary to sedate him heavily and strap him down before you do your doctor thing.
However, the psychiatrist is unable to do his doctor thing because Angelica teleports David to the top of the huge sports dome in Vancouver, Canada with five beautiful female Spiritual Beings from the Star system they call Pleiades!
(Why is it always the Pleiades in these books and manifestos?)
A long stretch of exposition ensues. The Pleiades built Stonehenge and the pyramids, David has the Quantum Love Gene which can turn bad guys into good guys, the Illuminati are after him, etc. Most of the book consists of reiterating and elaborating on this sort of thing.
At the end of this chapter, the author notes, I’m out of bananas this morning. Oh well, at least I have coffee.
We are introduced to Energy King Lucifer from the Planet Diable. There is a big and incoherent battle, which David and the other good guys win. The world has been saved! Everything is perfect! But the book is not quite over:
Angelica turned around to spring this incredible surprise on David. She had a twinkle in her eyes as she said to David, “You see, now that everything is said and done regarding the meeting, David, I have a surprise for you.”
David replied, “Good! I like surprises!”
With this, Angelica uttered the word, “Energize!”
The room began to glow with a bright white light. They heard the song of We are Spirit Light Beings.
We are Spirit Light Beings.
Having a wonderful human experience.
We are Spirit Light Beings.
Here for a moment in time and space.
We are Spirit Light Beings.
Learning to love again.
We are Spirit Light Beings.
Walking each other home.
We are Spirit Light Beings.
In case you were thinking, “But what about the dolphins? The cover promised dolphins!” a pool with two dolphins in it materializes in David’s living room.
