About This Book
Reality is twisted, history is splintered and physics is warped to make time travel possible, but not without dire consequences. Is it possible to undo a mistake made yesterday…, but also 700 years ago?
The US Government spent over $2 billion on the Superconducting Super Collider before announcing its abandonment in 1993. That lie turned the world's largest atom smasher into a top secret black op. Conducting collisions at the boundaries of quantum physics and generating energy bursts twice as powerful as any other on earth seems safe, right? What could possibly go wrong?
Might containment fields fail sending mammoth energy waves racing unchecked around the 54-mile ring of the atom smasher? Could they collide at a remote monitoring station where lone scientist, Tyler Nelson, MD sits, unprepared and suffering from Bird Flu, a disease which didn't exist until 1957? What if the massive energy burst creates a wormhole transporting Tyler to another place and time? Was Caffa, Crimea in 1346 A.D. really the birthplace of The Black Death, the most deadly pandemic in history which devastated Europe? How might Tyler's illness affect the spread of the bubonic plague epidemic? …its lethality? How might history be altered?
Can Tyler convince skeptical colleagues their new history didn't exist two days ago? Can and should the wormhole be recreated? Can and should history be repaired? Divergent military and scientific agendas complicate the ethical debate. In History Shattered, the first installment of The Travelers Saga, answers are shrouded in a clouded morality tale where risks are almost immeasurable, and with billions of lives and history itself resting in the balance.
