Description:
What if the Mayans got
the start of the end correct because they had survived it once before?
What if our written history was just as accurate as the old tale about
three blind men describing an elephant? What if classic science fiction
writing and television shows each got a piece of it correct, would you
know which ones? If your eyes can only see a tiny portion of a collage
do you know it is a collage?
Fans of Babylon 5, Star Trek TNG, Battle Star Galactica (the new one) and classic science fiction writing will enjoy the bountiful Easter Egg hunt contained within. When you were a child you learned to connect paper clips or thread beads together to make a necklace. Sit back and watch the beads you’ve had all your life form the picture you could not see. Consider for one second the possibility of the story, then hang onto your mind with both hands while you take the ride.
