Slideways: The Beginning
A car crash in a small town should have ended everything for Gaius and Max. Instead, it ripped open the fabric of reality and hurled them into the a fractured dimension caught between worlds, where time warps and technologies from many realms bleed together in chaotic collision.
Waking in a realm of twisted landscapes, tribal warfare, and shadowy creatures, the boys can't remember where they came from, or who they left behind. Haunted by flashes of a girl named Natalia, whose world ticks forward without them, they join a ragtag group of survivors locked in a battle against a savage barbarian horde led by a man with visions of domination over the Vale.
Gaius soon discovers he's a one of the few gifted (or cursed) with the ability to jump between dimensions. But his power is unstable, erupting at its own will and drawing the attention of hostile Sliders who want the power for themselves. At his side is Charlie, a native of the Vale with a fierce spirit and a mysterious gift.
As war intensifies and time runs differently between dimensions, Natalia grows older believing her friends are lost forever. Gaius must master his power, protect his newfound allies, and find a way home before everything unravels... or before he slides too far to ever return.
The Beginning is the thrilling launch of a multidimensional saga blending science fiction, spiritual depth, and heartfelt relationships. Perfect for readers who crave imaginative adventure without sacrificing meaning. It asks what happens when your gifts come with a cost, and how far you'd go to protect the world you've come to love.
