Price: $16.95 USD
In the future, the existence of the human race hangs by a thread. Earth is being besieged by alien forces, and physicist Ben Simon must develop a weapon system to stop the scourge and save humanity.

The largest enemy is the Cylots, an alien population of human-sized insects. They are destroyers who never lose—a space plague that leaves dead bodies and lifeless planets in its wake.

Much of Earth’s progress in research and development was obliterated when the Cylots destroyed the planet’s research facilities. Simon must go back in time to retrieve the formula that could possibly defeat the Cylots. Joining him is Mectar, an alien metamorph and special operations soldier from the planet Kia. Originally assigned to assassinate Simon during the Earth-Kian wars, Mectar is now delegated to protect him. After traveling back to the early twenty-first century, they team up with research technician Beth Grey, and the three search for the formula and battle the Cylots.

Action packed and fast moving, Currently Dead takes science fiction lovers on a journey through time, not knowing which human form can be trusted.

The runaway best seller on both planets Lalia and Parador is now available on Earth. It’s the actual future history of Earth the story of physicist Ben Simon, and the fight to develop a weapon system to stop the Cylot scourge and save humanity.

“It’s a wonderful story.”—Queen Lynth of Lalia

“It changed my life.”—Mectar the Kian

“I had a larger part in the version published on Parador.”—Razqual of Parador

  • I loved it - Your Turn!
    "Currently Dead" is written by a business associate of mine, Bob Good and as much as we may have tried to keep it business through the years, we have become good friends and because of that I've had the privilege of following the evolution of this story. Upon reading, one cannot help but get engrossed with this story because of the well-developed personalities of heroes Ben Simon, Beth Grey, and Mectar, and the bugged-out villains, the Cylots. Its pages are filled with action and treated with a desire to morph real science into science fiction that I believe someday in our future will be realized. It's another story of Earth in peril with a unique twist to saving the planet from alien domination and a must read for cravers of good science fiction. It's a fun read and I enjoyed it immensely, now it's your turn - Carl Arriaga <br /> <br />
  • Currently Dead
    What fun. Action is fast, characters engaging with a plot that mixes humor and science well. Beth, Simon and Mectar attach themselves to you and won't let go even after you've finished reading. <br /> <br />Definitely one of those books you are sorry to see end. This author is one to watch.
  • Currently Dead - Loved it
    The book is thoroughly enjoyable and a very good story that remains interesting throughout. It has all of the mystery and action that I like to find in a good, suspenseful action-thriller.I would recommend it not only to anyone who appreciates science fiction but also to those who just love a good, creative, interesting story.This book should appeal to a very broad audience; it has just enough intriguing (and correct) "science" to keep the concepts real. Enticing reading for anyone. If you enjoy a book that holds your interest so much that you don't want to put it down, and happily anticipate the author's next novel, then "Currently Dead" should be on your list. Hopefully the author will follow Simon and Beth Grey in his next book. <br /> <br />

  • Fast Paced Science Fiction
    Currently Dead: A Futuristic Sci-Fi Novel <br /> <br />Bob Good has combined science fiction, detective fiction and popularized quantum mechanics into a fast paced, frequently laugh out loud funny novel that demands to be read in one sitting. This yarn takes you through time, space and northern New Jersey dropping delicious bits of arcana and great science on almost every page without slowing down the action one iota.
