The Lords of History: Xeroma! - Arthur Josselyn Thompson

SIGNED & DATED

They lied to you...

It isn't space that's expanding, its time!

Beyond the stars, a a war for time itself is about to begin. 

Dr. Emma Hoyle - a brilliant physicist at a secretive tech company - vanishes without a trace during a quiet week in in the Derbyshire Peaks. 

One moment, she and her partner, Jon, are lying beside a tranquil stream. The next - she's gone. As Jon searches for answers, a darker possibility takes shape: Emma wasn't taken by chance, but because of what she knew. 

Her research into time displacement may have drawn the attention of forces operating far beyond human comprehension. 

What begins as a desperate search becomes a reality-shattering journey into the hidden architecture of the universe - where empires stretch their lifespans by slowing time, and the cost of immortality may be the very soul of what makes us human. 

Blending speculative science, emotional depth, and slow burning suspense, The Lords of History: Xeroma! is the gripping first volume of a bold sci-fi saga where time is the ultimate frontier.
