- (1888PressRelease) February 09, 2017 - "Timecrack" by William Long is published (ISBN #978-1910394458) About the Book: Timecracks act as passageways to other dimensions. They have existed since the creation of time, and when one arrives during a storm at the newly discovered pyramid site in the Yucatan jungle, it's the beginning of a nightmare journey into another world for archaeologist, Malcolm Kinross and his wife, Lucy.
And when another timecrack strikes the secretive energy facility in New Mexico, their sons, Archie and Richard, along with their tutor, Marjorie, and their uncle, Professor John Strawbridge, all find themselves thrust into the same world of New Arrivals, ancient warring tribes and deadly enemies.
Richard is endowed with the ability to 'see' beyond his own world. Can he help Archie to find their parents, and help the scientists at Mount Tengi to find a way for all of them to return home, and can he escape the clutches of the mad high priest, Prince Lotane?
Excerpt from the Book:
"It had come true - the warning given by old Mateo, the shaman in his village, the day Dr Kinross had arrived looking for workers to help him excavate the area around the ancient pyramid. Mateo, who rarely spoke to anyone, had been troubled and had warned Kinross and the villagers:
'Beware the anger of the Gods. Those who would take from them, they also will be taken.'
The young mestizos had ignored the old shaman. They said they were good Catholics and no longer listened to such nonsense. Besides, they would be well paid for their labour, and was this not more important to their families? Now some of them lay dead, and the doctor and his wife had disappeared.
As he prepared to leave the sacred grounds, Manuel prayed that the gods would not be too unkind to the doctor and his wife. Little did he know that Malcolm and Lucy Kinross had embarked on a very strange journey that few would have believed."
Press & Author reviews:
William Long's Timecrack is a good old-fashioned science fiction romp in the true spirit of the father of the genre, HG Wells. This dizzying Boys-Own adventure escapade through the wormholes of time and space will have you gripped right to the last with its fantastical vistas of new exotic worlds and ancient civilisations. M McCullough Daily Mirror
A rollercoaster Sci-Fi adventure that flings the reader headlong into other worlds that are all the more unnerving because they blend the fantastic with the familiar. You catch yourself thinking - somewhere in our past or our future this might actually be happening. A novel that awakens the young adventurer in all of us. Karen Maitland Best-selling author
