Xlibris selects author to represent Puramore as a possible film or television series adaptation at Hollywood movie producers' conference to be held in Hollywood this July. He will join a contingent of only 150 independent authors and publishers selected nationwide in this first-ever formal meeting of Indies with Hollywood screen executives.
Producer Bob Kosberg will host the event where the contingent of Indies will be given the opportunity to pitch their work to them.
Here's the current pitch:
Puramore is a comedic science fiction novel that presents a utopian view of the future for mankind. The plot setting takes place between the latter part of the 20th century and the middle part of the 21st. It follows the tradition of "Doctor Who", the long-running BBC television series, in melding unconventional science fiction with zany characters and plot settings. * * *
Mankind has only two choices after science and technology renders the species utterly obsolete and incapable of survival in the future.
One choice compels humanity to submit body and soul to a sinister supernatural civilisation, whilst the other impels mankind to submit to a utopian bioengineering paradigm. The first choice results in extinction of the singularity of the human soul, whilst the second choice leaves it infinitely free and self-determined.
General Sir George Smythe, Team Alpha, Nagual sorcerer and quantum computer battle Wingtip and spirit forces at his command to turn the tide of mankind's survival dilemma decidedly in their favour. In order to prevail against their mortal and immortal foe, they must marshal all the genius and intellectual resources at their disposal to overcome Wingtip's spiritual advantage. Time is of the essence since their foe is on the brink of delivering the final coup d'état to mankind.
The Divine Blade, can be wielded only for the thirteenth and last time. And only a paragon of mankind is fit to wield the Puramore to defeat the mortal and immortal enemy and lead mankind to apotheosis.
Failure is not an option for George Smythe, nor for mankind, whether or not he proves himself worthy to wield Puramore.
