Would you rather read a science fiction novel called First god or Second god The first title will make more sense from almost the beginning to the end, the second title will mislead the reader about where the book is going until the very end.?
Noah Steigerwald
In truth I don't follow your two story lines from the two titles at all. But...a big BUT...the second title, Second God, is a lot more intriguing and more likely to attract readers.
A Second God might imply there are two gods of creation and one is at war with the other for example. The OT implies that Heaven is filled with conflicts. Satan, for example, being expelled by that first god. Maybe Earth is the final battleground between the two gods and select humans get involved in the battle...for both sides.
Anyway, based solely on the titles, go with the Second God as that has more potential I believe.

I would prefer to read a Science Fiction novel called First God, as it offers a clearer and more direct narrative structure that can enhance the reader's engagement and understanding of the story from start to finish. The Second God title, with its element of surprise, may create confusion or mislead the reader, potentially affecting their overall enjoyment of the book.

What is the first known piece of literature that could be considered to be of the science fiction genre?
The genre developed over time. Greeks had stories about supernatural beings, and in the second century, there were satires written about a hero who goes to the moon. In the 1500s, the age of exploration began, and science became more real. Kepler in 1634 imagined living on the moon. Francis Bacon published used fiction to explain his scientific theory in 1624. One of the most famous science fiction stories is Gulliver's Travels in 1726. So, as with many things science fiction, it evolved with people adding to it through the centuries.Another perspective: I consider the legends of Daedalus to be rather obvious examples of gadgetry science fiction. Also there are some stories dating back to the Bronze Age.

Well, there is another series called the Secret Series ( First book: The Name of This Book is Secret, Second Book: If You Are Reading This, It's Too Late, Third Book: This Book is Not Good For You).
