Gatch’hh’en, pronounced Gatchin, is part machine part living being, and nothing like us. At least at first he isn’t, but as his Rite of Passage goes on his machine-like body becomes adapted to the biological prerogatives of life on Earth and he takes on human form and begins to learn. He learns to kill and know what it means to die - the finality of death. He comes to understand righteousness and sin. He falls in love. She dies horribly. Restraining a strong desire to extinguish all of mankind, he selects a young woman and begins the inexorable process of recreating the lover he remembers in all her exquisite detail. It backfires, horribly and unexpectedly. He has crossed the line and knows it, and now half mad with loneliness and despair all he really wants to do is go home; but he can't, at least not yet, for it seems the woman he attempted to recreate continues to have a powerful hold over him.
John Talisker is the author of Heather, a novel about an exceptional 11-year-old girl who can see through us all.
Gatc'hh'en Rite eBook John Talisker
The beauty of great science fiction is the platform it provides for serious consideration of life's big questions by joining science, philosophy, and religion in an exploration of what it means to be human.This novel, one of the great stories I have read over the last few years--the other two being LIFE AFTER LIFE and ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE--is excellent, poor copy editing notwithstanding. It hits all the right notes, making me think, laugh, and reflect on my own humanity. I give it my highest recommendation. Well done.

Gatc'hh'en Rite eBook John Talisker Reviews
This is a captivating story about a living being that is half machine. Gatc’hh’en isn’t from earth, so he studies the way which humans are like. He uses a template of a human’s DNA and forms into a person.
The setting of the story is in the 15th century located in France where he falls in love with a woman named Catherine. He loses her due to unforeseen circumstances, and this takes a great emotional toll on him. Gatc’hh’en runs away to the outer solar system to retrieve what’s left of him and to heal from this devastating loss.
After Gatc’hh’en regains some strength and mental stability, he returns back determined to reclaim what he lost. He finds a woman named Emily and genetically modifies her looks to what Catherine used to appear as. Emily is on her dying bed and most certainly appreciates the new life she has been given, however, as always, everything comes with a price and Gatc’hh’en has to deal with this problem.
The story is written with a philosophical touch. There are many terminologies and mentions to this topic blended into the story. The tale also references astrology and similar out of space phrasings. I found Gatc’hh’en to be very appealing. His character was well built, and although he is not human, he was relatable. All that Gatc’hh’en wants to do is to go home with the woman he loved which is very touching.
I believe that there was enough backstory for a sequel to this story. Gatc’hh’en’s Rite is in fact, his rite of passage. I really appreciated all insinuations to life and the value of living within the story. By the end of reading the book, you will defiantly be able to sense love, loss and more knowledge toward galaxies, the stars, and planets around.
I highly recommend this book to people that want to read something more in depth in the science fiction genre.

When you marry literary fiction with genre fiction, sometimes you wind up with a miss which satisfies neither audience, and sometimes you wind up with something amazingly different and wonderful. Such is the case, the different and wonderful part that is, in a daring new novel – Gatc’hh’en’s Rite – by John Talisker. The author guides us on a cosmic journey involving space, time and dimensional travel while managing to graphically depict the latent suffering of an eternal being who travels to earth on a rite of passage and falls in love with a human in 15th Century France. After losing her in a tragedy of Homeric proportions, he returns six centuries later determined to reclaim what he has lost, at any cost. His anguish, guilt and regrets cause him to explore, on a physical, spiritual and philosophical plane, his motivations and actions and their likely inherent consequences for earth and its inhabitants. Without compromising the entire plot, let me just say that Mr. Talisker manages to take a cold, bot-like energy force and turn it into a sympathetic human-like creature while making the reader fall in love with his new, and yet old, love. As earth awakens to the dangers of his ministrations and seeks to find ways to understand and maybe even thwart his aspirations, Gatc’hh’en must once again save his earthly love and then choose between her and his cosmic roots. Interest, suspense and entertainment value off the scale. For this work to be ignored by major publication houses and literary agents is folly at best and professional neglect at worst. Readers should do themselves a favour and not miss reading Gatc’hh’en’s Rite!
I really recommend this book to you. Once I started it I could not put it down. It is such an original approach to the genre that it is a must read.
I loved the story of Gatc'hh'en and his relationship with both Catherine and then Gretchen. I didn't want to put the book down. Thoroughly enjoyable. I am hoping there will be more adventures with Gatch'hh'en in the future. I found this book to be thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommend.
Its a light hearted look at life, love and happiness as interpreted by an energy based intergalactic being. And, its a page turner. My criteria for any book is that each page leaves me eager to turn to the next. And Mr. John Talisker delivers with an insider's blend of space science, with romance, and a fascinating take on ¨what it means to love, to live, to have a soul¨ - for after all, the story is through the eyes of Gatchhen who will live for an eternity...........if he doesnt screw up his Rite of Passage and blow up the earth, or his love affair with Catherine - and as an added bonus.......whats all this Soul Stuff about anyway. If you are looking for a book that will leave you entertained and thoughtful, this one's for you.
An excellently written science fiction story. Super read. The descriptions of the underlying science are solid and understandable. Both the character of the Alien and those humans he interacts with, are brought to life. The tale also ponders deeper questions, such as the use of power for good or bad. Well done! For anyone looking for a SciFi story with a new twist, this is worth buying.
The beauty of great science fiction is the platform it provides for serious consideration of life's big questions by joining science, philosophy, and religion in an exploration of what it means to be human.
This novel, one of the great stories I have read over the last few years--the other two being LIFE AFTER LIFE and ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE--is excellent, poor copy editing notwithstanding.
