Description

Which side will you be on? The side of the Syndos, genetically-altered humans, or the side of the Naturals. 

Captain Jennifer Hero is leading a task force from the thirtieth century on a one-way trip to the Diversion Point. Their goal is to plant a virus that will disrupt the genetic tendency toward sociopathy among the Syndos. After an intense attack on their remote South Pacific island base, Jennifer sends her colleagues back 300 years. But she does not go with them, opting instead to travel alone back to 2015 to grieve the loss of the love of her life, the time machine’s inventor, and to find herself.

After months spent alone on the radioactive atoll of Moruroa, Jennifer is rescued by an amphibious aircraft, piloted by a marine biologist and his crew. History sources she studied left out much about twenty-first century culture, causing culture shock and conflicts. She struggles to hide her superior intellect and nanotech-enhanced abilities. 

Among these ordinary humans she is as alien as the Syndos are in her native century. Her attitude toward sex diverges totally from theirs, for a start. So much so, it raises a question mark over whether she can even survive in 2015.

Contains graphic multi-partner sex with M/F and F/F pairings

Advance Praise

This book has two themes which overlap. One is the time travel sci-fi, which is absolutely brilliant. The other is an in depth depiction of evergrowing polyamorous bi-sexual relationships, which grew out of mutually shared friendships. It was a fast read, with extremely interesting factual scientific elements, which have been woven into an intriguing fiction that was hard to put down. The depth of the real science melded with the fiction alone would be reason enough to consider reformating it to begin preparing it to become a regular TV show. What an interesting way to enlighten about innovative scientific advancement, and questions surrounding black holes, time travel, and how they relate to the dark energy the author is obviously so well knowledgeable about. - 5 star Review Amazon

I awarded this book a 5 star review because it pulled me into the author's imaginative world and left me at the end screaming inside for more. I am now waiting impatiently for the second book to be released the way a child can not contain their excitement for Christmas to arrive. My applause goes to Dr Levin and his creative style of blending hard science with sci-fi fantasy, which works well to give this tale a genuine quality and aids in allowing a mind opening experience. I admire his characters for being both 3 dimensional and believable. Furthermore, I find that I'm hooked into their humanity; their dramas, loves, and lives. I've come to care about these characters and what fate holds for them.

I whole heartedly recommend this book to any fan of sci-fi who enjoys adventure, time travel, romance, and secret agents. This book has it and you may just find yourself longing to explore the islands and places Dr. Levin writes about in it's pages. Bravo! - 5 Star Review Amazon

I couldn't get into the book at first, but once I did it was fast paced. Levin blends hard science, with sci-fi fantasy very well. Anyone who loves time travel, sci-fi and secret agents will love this book. It also has some graphic sex scenes. I hope there is a sequel. I received an ARC copy from #NetGalley for an voluntary, honest review.

I think this book would be improved without the random illustrations or with an explanation for them. They're well done but distract from an interesting story. I really enjoyed reading this story, and I recommend it for those who love sci-fi adventures of the young adult variety.

The naturals are at risk of becoming extinct and it’s up to SS Captain Jennifer Hero and her team to stop the Syndols from exterminate the naturals by going back in time to the twenty seventh century and introduce a virus to correct the Syndols’ DNA. Jennifer doesn’t plan on going with her team but rather to twenty fifteenth century.

She finds herself stranded on an island, rescued by scientists, falling in love and reinventing herself in a century that she has admired from afar.

This is a scientific novel with numerous twists and turns where the reader can relate to some of Jennifer’s plights. I enjoyed reading it and can highly recommend it.
