Acerca de esta escucha

 Time pullers is a hard sci-fi. By “hard,” I mean that it is on a different level from non-cerebral, eye-candy sci-fi. It tells a tale of time travel in an alternate reality, set approximately in the present time and primarily located at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma. It is targeted to readers with at least some STEM background. If you do not know what “STEM” is, then this book will probably not be to your liking. If your educational experience has been focused in the liberal arts, you may run away screaming that there are multiple protagonists in the story. If one simply endeavors to skip the technical references (most of which, I assure you, are quite real) and read only the surrounding text, the story will be extremely unsatisfying. The scientific references are there for a reason, but not everyone will be able to appreciate that.

I have discovered that some readers have mistaken the historical alterations in the book for mistakes. Here are samples of how the reality depicted in Time Pullers differs from our own. For one, everyone is on the metric system. Another is that the Soviet Union is still very much in existence. Yet another is that some physical phenomena that are named after the person who discovered them have been renamed to use a French name, since in the book the Franco-Prussian Union is the center of the world’s technical advances. For example, Cherenkov radiation has been changed to “Douvillier” radiation. There is also a reference to the Air Force Academy, placing it at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, rather than Colorado Springs. Lake Geneva was actually one of the locations that was considered before the choice was made to place the academy in Colorado. There are also a few “Easter eggs” in the book, but I will leave it up to the reader to discover those.

The first chapter has very few references to science and technology, but if you decide to give the rest of the chapters a go, also check out the appendices, especially the glossary. The facility checklist will be best appreciated after you are at least halfway through the book.

Again, this book will not be everyone’s cup of tea. I wrote it to tell a particular story, one which could not be properly told without including the science of it. It will be up to you to decide where reality ends and fiction begins, but the reality is that there may be more fact and less fiction than you think.
