Dying to Live Forever

My book Dying to Live Forever is no longer on Amazon Kindle.

I am currently looking for an agent to represent me to sell it to a traditional publisher, where I believe I will have access to editing, marketing, and artistic talent far exceeding what I could do for myself.

Celebrity scientist and inventor Rik van der Gelder finds his lust for living gone, having lived two full lifetimes courtesy of 'fountain of youth' rejuvenation tech. He escapes his life, alone in his starship and yearning for some relief from the never ending chore of living. But a murderous attack and a crash landing on an unexplored planet force him into a desperate struggle to survive. Challenged at every turn by bizarre alien creatures, Rik encounters an artifact, leading him down a rabbit hole of discovery and intrigue. Standing together in battle with ancient artificial intelligences and the insect-like race that created them against a common enemy could end him. Or maybe it's just the beginning...
