TIME
In the year 697 AD, Ainbcellach Mac Ferchar, later known simply as Ain, succeeds to the throne of Dal Riata, only to be quickly overthrown by a rival family. He flees with his druid mentor, an artificial human, and learns that he is the product of a selective breeding program dating back millennia. He discovers he can manipulate reality with his mind, enabling him to rejuvenate his body indefinitely and guide the development of the human race and its expansion across the universe. At the end of time, Ain reflects on all that has happened and his own role in the history of the human race. Work in progress, planned as a trilogy of novels: “Time: Emergence”, “Time: Diaspora”, and “Time: Destiny”.
