About the Book

CURIUM is the story of thirty-five year Park employee Jack Jones after he receives an unexpected death sentence from his doctor. Jack works at Steadyland -- the world's biggest, most successful and well-known amusement park. Designed and built in Beatrice, California in the early 1950's by animation genius Gomer Steady, the Park reinvented itself over time by incorporating tons of cutting-edge technology as it grew in popularity. But some of these entertainment advances came at a high price. The computer-driven animated technology known as audioroboticals was developed in secret, with little or no oversight regarding safety. Over time, Park employees and even some Park Guests were exposed to dangerous side effects. The bigshots treated Park customers like lab rats flush with cash. During a period of rapid expansion, management installed those nasty little audiorobotics all over the Park. There were thousands of robots in the much-loved (and much-hated) It's A Doll's World and The Polynesian Bird Room. And then there was Steady's personal favorite - the patriotic George Washington exhibit - a presidential audiorobotical that was, in fact, as dangerous as Three Mile Island. The Park administrators knew of the problem, but they decided to cover-up the "situation" rather than spend hundreds of millions of dollars fixing it. As a result, many of the Park's long-time employees began to experience gruesome metabolic deterioration. The Park's Suits retired the George Washington exhibit and mothballed the robot inside a storage facility deep underground. But "he" is about to be liberated from exile by ex-employees seeking revenge. And revenge - as everybody knows - is a dish best served very, very hot. Oh, and please keep your hands and feet inside the ride vehicle at all times.
