Seven thought-provoking stories from six different genres bound by one principle - Time. Each story showcases an expression of humanity against the weird science which tests it. All could be novels in their own right, but each has been shrunk to its core tale to provide a more exciting read. And, designed to keep you thinking about them long after you have put the book down. TIMELESS: A man's life story recounted during his final timeless moment, one of the many that befall him causing the world around him to come to a standstill. All these timeless moments seem to be inextricably linked in his life and anchored to one seminal event.CLOCKS SLAY TIME: A bizarre corruption in his consciousness leaves a man experiencing his life in a non-sequential jumbled order. Despite not being able to remember his name or even where he lives, he manages to get by living only in the moment. Until he encounters a particular girl who by just being in her company, allows him to make sense of his confused existence. This is a love story set against a background of distorted time. The non-sequential order of the chapter numbers reflects this, although this story can also be re-read by following the 11 chapters in sequential number order. It then becomes a completely different story; it is a matter of perspective. EPSILON: An exorcist encounters a man of whom it is unclear whether he is possessed or suffering from some kind of psychosis. This is a modern horror story which shows how distorted reality can be just as frightening as the depths of hell.HELLO FRIEND: When the world's leading social network rolls out an artificially intelligent App aimed at engaging the lonelier and more socially challenged people in society, strange results enfold. Is it just a clever program or has the artificially intelligent computer program become sentient and is now directing events in user's lives?This tale tells the story of a disparate set of characters who without knowledge of each other, become entwined in each other's lives, like pawns being moved by a chess-master.HOLD THE BRIDGE: A female officer is unexpectedly awakened from deep stasis, two and a half years early on a long distance space voyage. She is joined by another crewman who is also oblivious to the reason for their premature awakening. They can return to stasis sleep but decide instead to investigate first, searching for any anomalies or problems that might need their direct intervention. Events induce a sense of paranoia when it becomes evident that they are not alone and an alien entity might be onboard and impersonating both of them. As the senior officer, it is imperative that she secures and holds the Command Bridge of the vessel against all odds. THE FALL AND RISE OF THE EL: The EL is an advanced race of timeless spiritual light beings that think and act collectively and have been assigned a protective role over a particular solar system. They must initiate and oversee the restoration of a frozen planet which once supported much life. Once its ice has retreated, their stewardship requires many of their collective to descend substantially in vibration and take up physical form in order to carry out their duty on the dense planet below. However, divisions in their unity and purpose arise after they opt to manipulate the genetics of one particular species in order to turn them into a helper race of infertile automatons to which they can delegate much of their menial tasks.
