Sorin Banu

Author Sorin Banu published his first book in May 2016, the dystopian novel "Tentoria" (translated in English in 2019).

He has graduated in Economics and his professional career has been in the IT industry. He was born in Bucharest and currently lives in Brussels. He is passionate about metaphysics and emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality etc., areas that have undoubtedly inspired him in his first book.

From the author:

Of me, as an author, things are simple: TENTORIA is my first published book and I promise not to be the last.

I like to communicate, to tell stories, I like words, action movies thrilling plots, adventure and science fiction, and I love everything about technology, having even a greater passion for emerging technologies.

When and how did I take up writing?

After lots of sleepless nights trying without success to answer questions like where mankind is heading? How we really came into being? How large is the universe? Who or what lies behind the rules governing our existence? What is the soul? What is life? etc., I started writing down all sorts of ideas and possible theoretical scenarios. Finally I told myself it would be interesting to set aside some of my ideas for an enticing story easy to be read.

That’s how "Tentoria" came to light and, leaving aside the ideas behind the story, I hope it is an absorbing narrative who will keep you glued to it up to the end.

Maybe years later, when trying to write another biography, I will talk about more books. But now is simple, this is me: a debutant author nurturing a beautiful ambition on his first book, hoping to succeed in convincing his readers the novel he penned is worth reading.

Thank you for being one of them!
