Local author Bob Freeman has released his latest novel, the science fiction adventure “Behind the Now: Time Travel, But Not Like That.”
A press release describes the book as such: “Teenage protagonist José can’t escape the whispers of time itself. Driven by curiosity and obsession, he transforms his basement into a portal to the impossible. Armed with a candy-apple red bike, a backpack of vacuum tube amplifiers and relentless ingenuity, José builds a sound-based device to crack open the veil between the present and the past. What begins as a personal quest spirals into a surreal odyssey across shadow-filled landscapes, ghostly visions of his own past and uneasy alliances with cryptids, lost campers, rogue university labs and a militarized ‘Proton Time Gun’ project.”
The 205-page book is available locally at Eureka Books, 426 Second St., Eureka, and via Amazon.
Freeman is a storyteller who fuses speculative science with deeply human narratives. He has also written a five-volume “Space Opera,” which is being developed for television.
