The Choir

and its companion book

The Philosophy of The Choir

by Bobby Cochran • Available on Amazon and Kindle

One novel asks what the evidence means. Its companion asks what meaning is.

The Choir is a philosophical science-fiction novel about music, uncertainty, grief, and a scientific discovery that cannot be understood by examining its parts in isolation. The Philosophy of The Choir steps outside the story to explore the questions it raises without flattening them into an answer key.

The Novel

The Choir

A Philosophical Science Fiction Novel

At the Cascadia Time-Domain Research Center, scientist Paul Webb and his colleagues encounter a pattern that challenges their instruments, their assumptions, and the border between observation and interpretation. As the evidence grows stranger, Paul must decide how much uncertainty science can tolerate before certainty becomes the less honest choice.

Writing is where the different parts of my life finally sit at the same table: humor, curiosity, therapy work, lived experience and a little irreverence. These are the books I’ve published so far—each one reflecting a facet of my journey and the lessons I hope will make someone else’s path a little easier.

Abort Pulse 12

Book 1 of The Causality Sequence. A signal arrives before it’s sent.

When a mysterious transmission is detected twelve hours before it is broadcast, a grieving astrophysicist assembles a rag‑tag crew to chase down the source. Their search uncovers a temporal anomaly that threatens to unravel causality itself. As past and future collide, the team must decide whether to abort the mission or risk rewriting reality.

The Matter Protocol

Book 2 of The Causality Sequence. The future stops asking permission.

In the aftermath of Abort Pulse 12, matter itself begins to misbehave. Experiments with the Matter Protocol unleash a cascade of events that blur the line between human agency and physical law. To survive, the crew must hack the very rules of existence before the universe writes them out of its script.

The Human Constant

Book 3 of The Causality Sequence. Survival demands a final equation.

The trilogy concludes as reality fractures and time loops on itself. Humanity’s final constant is tested when the laws of physics begin to unravel. The crew must grapple with the ultimate question: what remains when everything else changes? Their answer could reset the human constant forever.

First Fiction Novel

The Canvasser

A psychological thriller about quotas, cults, and the cost of belonging.

Sequel to The Canvasser

The Harvester

Everyone buys eventually.

The suburban sanctuary has grown into a corporate machine, and tithes are no longer voluntary. When quotas become life‑and‑death, our reluctant salesman returns to find the cost of belonging has escalated beyond money. There is no resistance; you either contribute or you’re compost.
