Through years of reading Fantasy and Science Fiction novels, comics, table top gaming and watching endless hours Japanese anime, he developed a keen sense for what made stories enjoyable and more importantly\u2014what didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>While pursuing an engineering degree in college, Kirk endeavored to tell his own stories, choosing writing as the easiest and cheapest medium to master\u2014or so he thought. Several years and several hundred thousand words later, he produced a Sci-fi trilogy that shall never (God willing) see the light of day, but that did teach him much needed lessons about the craft of writing fiction.<\/p>\n<p>After college Kirk returned to his homeland of Bermuda where he reunited with his childhood friend and future wife, Ria. But before marrying his lovely wife, Kirk entered an even greater marriage and devoted his life to Christ in 2002.<\/p>\n<p>With a new found direction in life, writing fell by the wayside but the urge to tell futuristic stories never left. After much prayer and contemplation, Kirk purposed his writing for God\u2019s Will, seeking to draw to Christ those who shared his passions for all things futuristic and Sci-fi.<\/p>\n<p>Kirk currently lives with his wife Ria and 18 month old son Miles in beautiful Bermuda. He is a faithful member of the Church of Christ and is a professional engineer employed by the government.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><br \/>\n <a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_m32TlugOPkM\/SwNtyk3VnoI\/AAAAAAAADKo\/wpA_9rBP-yQ\/s1600\/eternityfalls.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405284693431393922\" style=\"margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 157px; height: 243px;\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_m32TlugOPkM\/SwNtyk3VnoI\/AAAAAAAADKo\/wpA_9rBP-yQ\/s320\/eternityfalls.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>In the future, death is only a problem if you can\u2019t afford the price. Such is the promise of Gentec Corporation\u2019s \u201cMiracle Treatment\u201d, a genetic anti-aging elixir that grants eternal life\u2014or does it?<\/p>\n<p>When a Gentec client suddenly dies of natural causes, the powers that be will stop at nothing to ensure their version of eternity remains unchallenged; even if it means concocting a religious sabotage conspiracy to cover a lie.<\/p>\n<p>With the media about to blow the story wide open, the credibility of Gentec and the lives of millions of clients rest on one man\u2019s ability to uncover the truth.   Enter detective Rick Macey, religious counterterrorist expert and Gentec executive Sheila Dunn\u2019s last hope for salvation.<\/p>\n<p>Now with the clock ticking and the corporate brass seeking their own solution at any cost, Macey must track down a religious zealot out to destroy the Miracle Treatment for good.<\/p>\n<p>But when Macey finds himself not only falling for his client, but confronted with the possibility that the culprit could hold a connection to his shaded past, the truth suddenly becomes a dangerous thing.<\/p>\n<p>Only through a test of faith can he stop the crisis before it\u2019s all too late and eternity falls.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to read an excerpt from Chapter 1 of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0982104979\">Eternity Falls<\/a>, go <a href=\"http:\/\/thestorybeginnings.blogspot.com\/2009\/11\/eternity-falls-chapter-1-excerpt.html\">HERE<\/a>.<br \/>\nLearn more about Kirk and his books on his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kirkouterbridge.com\/\">Website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0982104979\">Eternity Falls<\/a> is a fast paced, extremely readable tale of a futuristic Los Angeles only too easy to believe &#8211; the signs are already here. Filled with plenty of action, danger, cyborgs with human brains, 80-year-old humans in 30-year-old bodies, cyberweapons, gunfights, superhuman exploits, and yes, even a little romance, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0982104979\">Eternity Falls<\/a> has a little something for everyone. Good character development and a plot that moves along with a few surprises are just a couple of reasons to read this book.<\/p>\n<p>Not only is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0982104979\">Eternity Falls<\/a> a great story for those who crave plenty of action but it manages to raise some pretty serious issues to think about. What happens when humans are enabled to live forever? Are their lives really any happier or more productive? Who has the authority to choose who lives, who dies, and when? In a future where God is largely ignored, the answers may be surprising &#8211; or maybe not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is introducing Eternity Falls Marcher Lord Press (October 1, 2009) by Kirk Outerbridge ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Kirk Outerbridge developed a passion for storytelling at an early age.
