One hundred and eighty-three years after biological warfare eradicated all but a trace of mankind, Beth Gooding graduates from basic training as a Cultural Anthropologist with a Linguist subcategory. For intermediate training, she is sent to Hope, a remote outpost near Old Boston. She is assigned to Professor David James and required to learn Old Persian, a language she considers useless in a society recovering from near extinction. Despite their age difference, romance develops as Beth and Dr. James endure austere lives typical of the early 1800's frontier. Dr. James eventually introduces Beth to a three-million-year-old shard found by his father-an object that could not be duplicated with modern technology. In attempt to uncover the shard's origin, David and Beth set out to explore the radioactive Kill Zone in Old World Syria. Through constant struggle to survive and many brushes with death, they come to realize life without the other wouldn't be living at all. On returning to civilization, they reveal the shard led them further back in time than they could have imagined-and provides potential to move human kind further into the future than anyone dared dream.5.0 out of 5 starsLove and deep meaning in the storyAugust 26, 2017Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseThis is an incredible novel with a profound message.

I would call this book a close match something like Twilight. If you never gave Twilight a chance either you should have. Books like this aren't chained to any specific genre. It's not just sci-fi, it's not just romance, it's all of the above. The way the author makes such a strong connection with his characters allows the reader to make that connection as well. You don't have to be a young teenaged girl to be able to connect with the main character Beth as she carves her path in life after a massive biological war that makes the Earth uninhabitable. You don't have to like sci-fi thrillers to become enveloped in this story that crosses through several generations. You will be hooked from the first chapter guaranteed.5.0 out of 5 starsIt waJuly 13, 2016Format: PaperbackWhat a privilege to read this book!!
