Science Fiction
A big-bang of an adventure, Robert A. Metzger's Picoverse boldly embraces the grand traditions of the genre, while exploding beyond the limits of scientific knowledge, beyond the edges of imagination, and beyond the boundaries of the universe as we know it. When funding is cut for Sonomak-the fusion power project that she and her ex-husband are working on-Dr. Katie McGuire faces an uncertain future. Until the real potential of Sonomak is unwittingly revealed. In steps the mysterious Alexandra Mitchell. Armed with unlimited resources, Mitchell commandeers the Sonomak project for her own use. With her team now assembled, including Katie, her ex-husband, and physicist Jack Preston, Mitchell reveals her true goal: to use Sonomak to create a brand new universe, a Picoverse one million-millionth of our own. Now, all systems are go on an experiment to deliberately rip apart the fabric of space-time.
