Elevator to the Gods

The nations of Earth are forced to work together to face the disaster of the century. A story full of heroes, villains and just plain everyday people facing incredible challenges.

The storyline endeavors to explain the Fermi Paradox, touches on alternate explanations for the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy, that fuel the imagination. What much of modern science fiction has been missing. A hard science fiction novel with an articulate, easy to understand delivery for the layman.
A must read for the classical sci-fi lover as well as the new fan looking for real explanations to today’s, as well as tomorrow’s, mysteries in our most fascinating multiverse
