Cloned from the ancient cells of Jesus Christ, Christopher Goodman is forced to sit back and watch the destruction of Earth in order to fulfill his destiny.

I was born in Waltham, MA in 1953. My father was career Army so we moved every two or three years. The first house I remember was Silver Spring, MD, coincidentally, only a dozen miles from where I live now. The most interesting place we lived was Hawaii—1960-1963. When my father retired, we moved to Tennessee, which was my mother's home state. I graduated from high school in Shelbyville, TN in 1971 and began hitch-hiking around the country, mainly for the adventure. In Buffalo, NY and later in Kansas City I ran into "Jesus Freaks," former hippies who had become Christians—they were everywhere back in the early '70s. I met my wife, Geri, in 1972 at a "Christian house" and we were married the following year; we were both 19 years old. I worked in miscellaneous jobs including as a telephone lineman and as a machinist with no real plans for the future. In 1976 I joined the U.S. Army and after a year of intensive language training in Monterey, CA, was assigned to the National Security Agency. While in the Army I completed my B.A. with majors in political science and teaching. I also decided to pursue a political career and in 1980, while still in the Army, I ran for U.S. Congress against incumbent Congressman Albert Gore, Jr. (better known these days as Al Gore). There's a photo of me during that campaign with Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush on the web site at christclonetrilogy.com After leaving the Army in Jan. 1981, I went on to graduate studies at Middle Tennessee State University and then at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where I also taught political science. I stayed active in politics for a few more years as a campaign manager and lobbyist, which is why I ended up back in the Washington, D.C. area. By 1987 I decided that politics was putting too much strain on my family, so I turned my attention to technical writing to pay the bills and started work on The Christ Clone Trilogy to satisfy my creative drives. "The real me:" A broken vessel who is thankful to have, and be bound for far better than I deserve. Favorite books: The first book I ever read—and have reread several times—is 1984 by George Orwell. I also like anything by C.S. Lewis and Charles Dickens. Of contemporary authors I tend toward Frank Peretti, Tom Clancy, Michael Crichton.
