About the Book
Sex Radio
Mr. Warner says, "I got to wondering a few years ago about what would happen if the world was controlled by pleasure instead of by pain as it has since the beginning. Sex Radio is the result."
Sex Radio is a multi-faceted novel, there is humor, fun, and love, and the darker side, greed, passion, suffering, and heartbreak, but most of all Sex Radio is a story of love -- one of the greatest love stories ever written.
There is very little overt sex and very few obscenities in Sex Radio. Overt sex and bad language is not what Sex Radio is all about. Sex Radio is about a young man, Larry Longborne, who dreams up the idea to broadcast a radio beam, which will excite the pleasure centers of human beings. He goes to see Krong the Watcher and asks for his help, which he gets so the Watchers can study the effect of pleasure on the world mob instead of pain.
The Watchers build the machines, which will broadcast the pleasure beam (a beam that is much like a radio beam, which is why the novel is called Sex Radio).
The radio beam stimulates the pleasure center of the human brain causing an orgasm in the privacy of the home while alone or with a partner, or your money back, which is called an SRO: a sex radio orgasm.
The world quickly learns to love their SRO's and then the trouble starts: the slime of the world tries to muscle in on Larry's business because in a very short time Larry has just about the entire world, about six billion people, buying his service for one buck a pop, per day, or as the world mob calls it, 'a jolt,' which quickly make Larry a very rich man -- with billions pouring into his coffers every day.
In the meantime, Larry meets Sheila Raleigh, a young beautiful woman, who goes to work for him. Larry also meets and has a wonderful relationship with Starr, a young beautiful Watcher woman. When that relationship ends, he and Sheila have a wonderful relationship too, which ends one day when Sheila meets and leaves Larry for a handsome young Watcher man. Larry is crushed, but he goes on managing his gigantic Sex Radio business called Sex Radio Services.
Larry is kidnapped one day and only the Watchers can save him.
Sheila works her way up to second in command of Sex Radio, then takes over when Larry sells out to the Watchers who are the only ones that can handle the criminal slime who are trying to muscle in on Larry's enormously profitable business. Larry and Sheila are in love with each other forever, but they have some living to do first trying to find what everyone wants -- true and compatible love forever. Will they find it?
About the Author
Robert James Warner was born and raised in Long Beach, California. He went to the local schools. He was drafted in to the Navy on March 9, 1944, during the World War II as soon as he finished his last semester in High School. He was discharged from the Navy on June 16, 1946. Mr. Warner went back to school at Long Beach City College, on the G.I. Bill, taking Mechanical Engineering before he switched to journalism. After about a year and a half at City College, he quit. Mr. Warner had always been interested in writing, but he had huge handicaps to overcome: he couldn't spell (he still can't); and grammar was then and is now a mystery to him. Mr. Warner first began to write when he was about twenty. During the next few years, he wrote some songs, poetry, and short stories, but his output was quite low. From 1947, after Mr. Warner left City College, to 1950, he had a number of different inconsequential jobs--the longest, at Douglas Aircraft in Long Beach where he worked in the blueprint department for eight months until he quit and loafed awhile. In 1950, he enlisted in the Active Naval Reserve as a Weekend Warrior, so that he could learn seamanship and get paid doing it. He has had a life long love affair with boats (building his own) and fishing. About three months later, the Korean War started and Mr. Warner was called back to active duty in the Navy Aircorp for a year. He was discharged in August 1951, serving on three aircraft carriers, operating off of Korea in the China Sea, bombing and strafing the communists! After Korea, Mr. Warner went back to City College for awhile, then got a job on a freighter as a deckhand. He then made two trips to the Hawaiian Islands, about thirty days round trip, hauling bulk sugar for C&H Sugar in Crocket California on the Sacramento River. Leaving the ship in Crocket, he went to Santa Rosa, California, where he washed dishes in a few restaurants and got a poem published in the local newspaper--a big day in his life. Next, he went to Yosemite and washed some more dishes before going home. Mr. Warner has cleaned chicken dung from under the pens; he owned and operated his own auto wrecking yard; owned his own 2nd Store; was half owner of a Yacht Landing; speculated in Real Estate; and worked at some other odd jobs, going to work for the Long Beach Fire Department in 1953 for the next twenty-six years, retiring in October, 1979. Mr. Warner got married in 1961, had his son in 1963, and got divorced in 1973. In 1974, Mr. Warner and his son, Jeff, drove to Alaska during the summer. On his return, Mr. Warner wrote his first novel. Since 1974, Mr. Warner has written 31 novels, about 125 short stories, 2 Civil War history books, and 2 poetry collections.
