When Brian discovers that the eccentric main programmer Humbert Cloogey has sold him off to the Army for induction, he makes his escape, assisted by his only ally Dr. Kate Rand, a neuroscientist who works for the company, but who has some secrets herself.
Simultaneously as Brian is undergoing the experiment, a Triad crime boss and part-time cloning engineer Lau Xiaoming, operating out of North Korea, hacks into the U.S. server hosting the software, planting a Trojan program into Brian’s brain that holds the secret to “Project Starfish”, his plan for world domination.
Brian finds himself pursued by not only the U.S. Army, and FBI, but also by Xiaoming and his minions, all looking to grab him for their own exploits.
From the author:
The core of my story is Brian’s journey, going from a
middle-aged man who gave up on his dreams, to suddenly finding himself
empowered with skills he never thought he’d ever achieve. Almost
overnight he acquires a superhero status. But he discovers that he
apparently hasn’t achieved any more control over his life than before. In
fact, his life seems pretty much out of control now.
Plans for a CYBER FIGHTER feature length movie from William Hill lie ahead. He said, “I am also developing CYBER FIGHTER into a feature film. Part of that process includes doing a short film version for a proof-of-concept for my vision of the full feature. I am hoping to produce and shoot the short film this summer and have it go to festivals. I also did a comic book adaptation of that short film version that is also for sale on Amazon.

When interviewed, the author tells us his life story, “I’ve
actually been writing since elementary school. I always liked writing my
own science-fiction stories, though my early work was derivative of TV shows I
loved like SPACE: 1999 and the 1970s version of Buck
Rogers. When my family moved to Hawaii (my Dad was a Captain in the
U.S. Navy), I started making my own movies first with a Super-8 camera and then
our family’s VHS camcorder. In high school I wrote, directed, and starred
in my very first feature Law of the Ninja, with my siblings as
co-stars and the neighborhood kids as background actors.
When I came to Hollywood, I not only continued with my acting career, but also used my writing skills to pen some screenplays, a few of which I was hired to write from an indie producer. CYBER FIGHTER was originally intended as a vehicle for my acting career, but gradually developed into a bigger story which my debut novel tells. It is my very first book that I’ve ever published.
My wife Pamela and I started our own production company Four Scorpio Productions, and we have our own YouTube channel where we began making short films and then developed our own web series sitcom That Darn Girlfriend which is in its third season. It’s a quirky fun parody of classic 1960s/1970s sitcoms, done in that style as well. We’ve built an audience of over 3,500 subscribers. I also share my filmmaking/VFX knowledge with a tutorial series that I produce and host on the channel as well: https://williamjosephhill.com/ and http://fourscorpio.com/ and https://www.youtube.com/fourscorpio.
