Overview

History remembers the kings and the conquerors. But the real story was always happening in the shadows. A spy hiding a red cord in the walls of a doomed city. A left-handed assassin walking alone into a tyrant's palace. A girl in a foreign field, gleaning the leftovers of a life she didn't choose. A woman riding into the dark to stop a future king from making a mistake that would stain his crown forever. In The God of the Outcast, Lorcan Pike strips away the Sunday-school polish to reveal the raw, dusty reality of the Old Testament's most ""lesser-known"" figures. These aren't fairy tales. They are stories of survival, cleverness, and the quiet miracles that happen when the fireworks stop. From the high-stakes tension of Jericho to the cosmic vision of a valley of dry bones, discover the ""Architect"" who doesn't build for the now-but for the forever. Perfect for fans of historical fiction and readers aged 12-14 who want a story that isn't afraid of the grit.

Author Information

Lorcan Pike writes speculative science fiction that explores how technology reshapes identity, autonomy, and the stories people tell themselves to survive. His work often unfolds in dystopian futures where progress has a price-and someone always pays it. His recent fiction includes cyberpunk detective noir, blending hard-edged investigations with philosophical questions about selfhood, memory, and moral responsibility in engineered societies. Pike is particularly interested in what justice means when autonomy can be altered, erased, or rewritten, and how systems designed for order quietly drift toward control. A former child actor, Lorcan has since worked in marketing, computer repair, and medical coding-backgrounds that inform his fascination with systems, optimization, and the human cost hidden beneath efficiency. He lives in the American Southeast with his wife and their three cats, who remain unimpressed by neon-lit futures and overdue case files.
