If he did, he certainly knows how to present complicated theory well. If he didn't do a lot of research for this book, I'd be surprised. Wacks presents some interesting theory on time travel, positing some quantum physics as he goes. It hurts my brain sometimes, and even though Second Paradigm flips from one point in time to another, I didn't feel like a lost ball in the tall weeds. I'm not one for time travel as a theme, I'll admit that. I don't want to give too much away, all I can say is Second Paradigm is a well thought out time travel science fiction novel, well- written, and can stand up there with the best science fiction novels out there. The book starts out with a topsy turvy trial that does not go like anyone thinks it should and then the action takes off.

Chris Nost, who isn't sure why he's on trial for something he doesn't think he did one Alexander Zarth who may or may not be a good guy.or is he a bad guy?.and add in a host of supporting characters who move in and out of time and you've got a fantastic read. Packed with action, we follow members of the Time Corp as they try to manipulate time to keep paradoxes from occurring that would literally rip holes in time. In a nutshell, if you like fast-paced time travelling science fiction with a plot that's fun to follow (How many times have I ever said that about a science fiction novel? Never.), and interesting characters, not to mention some food for thought regarding the nature of time, then this book is for you. Available through Amazon and Barnes & Noble
