After retiring from the US Army, I went back to school for my degree. With some inspiration from my writing professor, I decided I would put some story ideas to pen. However, new jobs and a new family impeded my writing. However, gave me time to develop my stories. Science fiction stories have always appealed to me. Harry Turtledove has some grand stories. I admire the way he can change one instance of time and develop a new future from it. I like the idea of playing with time, and that is what this book is about.
