Smashwords Interview

Tell us a little about SADISOFT...
I can describe my COMPANY with a simple answer, I (S. SADIQ) took my love for Science Fiction and set out on a journey of self-enlightenment. Studying the Islamic religion I found it awe-inspiring and sought to implement it in my life. However after seeing this way of life demonized, by believers and non-believers alike, questioning its place in civilized society; I have attempted to enlighten the soothsayers via a genre that is growing ever popular day by day.
What do you read for pleasure?
I love reading Michael Crichton his approach to storytelling really resonates with me. I remember the "rabbit scene" from his novel Prey. Stranded scientist conducted an autopsy on a rabbit they had to watch die after being surrounded by a cloud of nano-particles. That gave me the inspiration to write a similar scene in my debut novel Reapers of the Damned. Where a group of engineers got to see the effects of the entity on a celestial arachnid.
