FreeForm: Reborn: An Alien First Contact Science Fiction Thriller
A new physique. An old façade... In light of what she’s seen, former ufologist Pat Vogt is reluctant to conceal the nature of Allan Pritchard’s seeming nephew. TJ isn’t as he appears, and the boy’s history could mean a bleak future for mankind. Are Pat and Allan instilling humanity or nurturing a malevolent force? Would the true monster be borne by betrayal? As TJ learns to harness his powers, the stakes mount ever higher.
Meanwhile, hidden away in a backcountry cave, another lifeform is growing...exponentially. With the help of a shadowy benefactor known only as ‘Aeo’, Doctor Homlin’s plans have received new breath. Soon to emerge is Val, a hungry incarnate that won’t rest until its progenitor’s vision becomes reality.
Ex-operative James Stepp may hold the key to salvation, but how much responsibility can be entrusted to a mercenary...?
Building upon its own powerful predecessor, Book II of O.J. Bradford’s FreeForm Series thickens the plot, dials up the tension and doubles-down on a rallying cry for excellence in modern SF.

About the author
Orrin Jason Bradford
34 books25 followersAs a writer with over 25 years of professional experience and 22 years as a life and business coach, I combine these unique talents to help aspiring and emerging writers to make a difference as they express their life purpose through the power of the written word.
I also enjoy connecting with readers who love a good story that entertains while also enlightening and encouraging them to live their own life on purpose. I call that visionary fiction. If you love a good nonfiction book that both enlightens and encourages you in your life while also being entertaining, that’s visionary nonfiction, and this is the place for you as well!
I became an avid reader of visionary fiction and nonfiction including fantasy and science fiction as an eleven-year-old boy when my next-door neighbor, who was a children’s librarian, took pity on my single-parent mom. Bored out of my gourd with no one to play with but good ‘ol mom, I drove her crazy until Mrs. Crabtree brought home a stack of books she knew would hook a young boy and give my mom some relief. It worked. I’ve been hooked ever since.
For the past two decades I’ve been conducting an experiment. Is it possible to create a new context for my life that I feel is “divinely inspired” and true to my deepest values, my sense of what’s possible, and true to my soul and spirit? If it is possible, what will be the results? Will it enhance my life? Will I experience a true sense of purpose and meaning? Will I know at the end of the experiment that my life has mattered?
Becoming a writer of visionary fiction and non-fiction has been an integral part of this experiment, as was co-founding Life On Purpose Institute with my wife in 1996, being a coach to assist others to create their own life on purpose experiment, and training other Life On Purpose Coaches.
Since selling my veterinary practice in the late 80’s to pursue a career as a writer and life coach, I’ve published over 350 magazine articles in such publications as Family Fun, Boys’ Life, Body and Soul (then New Age Journal), Yoga Journal, and Better Homes and Garden, to mention just a few. Many of these have been part of my pet writing project: Project Purpose: to write and publish articles about people whose lives are dedicated to a bold and inspiring purpose or vision.
From magazine writing, it was a natural next step to graduate to writing books, starting with visionary nonfiction -- books that engage and encourage while also entertaining. So far this includes:
• Life On Purpose: Six Passages to an Inspired Life, (Book 1 of the Life On Purpose Series)
• From Spark to Flame: Fanning Your Passion & Ideas into Money-making Magazine Articles that Make a Difference.
• Spiral of Fulfillment: Living a Life of Service, Simplicity & Spiritual Serenity (Book 2 of the Life On Purpose Series)
• Clarity of Purpose: Don't Live Life without It (Part of the Life On Purpose Special Report Series)
• Coaching to Win (my first visionary nonfiction book currently being revised and updated for future release)
Then there are some dreams that hang around and won’t go away, no matter how many time you push them to the back burner. That’s the case with the dream that began as a eleven-year-old boy. That’s where the other half of the equation comes in — visionary fiction — stories that, first and foremost, entertain while also enlightening and encouraging the reader to embrace greater possibilities in their lives. This category includes:
Dominion Over All which will be published later in the summer (of 2011) is a transformational fantasy for the young adult market. It combines my love for fantasy with my passion and love for animals, as demonstrated by my past career as a small animal veterinarian.
Seeds of a New Birth -- a most adult SF techno-thriller explores what happens when genetic engineering combines with rampant greed -- will be released before the end of this year (2011).

Freeform Reborn by Orrin Jason Bradford Freeform Reborn by Orrin Jason Bradford continues where Freeform left off. This is a captivating story with futuristic, paranormal events that I found entertaining. I gave it five stars.
TJ who appeared to be his deceased son emerges from a cave.
"'Daddy,' TJ repeated. 'She killed him. Why were they fighting?'
'He was a bad...man,' Allan said not quite knowing how to finish the sentence. 'He hurt her and would have hurt a lot of other people as well.'
'Does that make me bad as well?' TJ asked."
TJ has to come to terms with the fact that he is different. He can transform his body at will & enjoys doing so. He continues to grow at an exception rate of speed.
Pat & Allan's relationship is struggling because of her animosity toward TJ.
I received a complimentary advance reading copy from the author. That did not change my opinion for this review.
