I doubt anyone is gonna remember when i announced my work on a novel entitled "The Rift" a few months ago. I started writing it during Nanowrimo (which I won by the way) and after that I continued to work on the novel adding to the 50,000 words I had written. For those of you unfamiliar with the story concept I give you the once over (in lamence terms).
In the beginning of the story, the sun goes supernova and the earth is sucked into a black hole (explained much more scientifically in my book I assure you) Ben, a sixteen year old guy, is the main protagonist of the story however the book also follows the stories of several other people whom he meets up with later. The story involves a lot of interweaving fates and destiny type stuff. Anyway. The space tiime continuum had to create a place in which to place all of the mattersucked in by black holes so an alternate dimension called The Rift was born. The rift is a seperate frame of reality in which all planets sucked up by black holes have molded together into one giant planet called Euretha.
Euretha is a place full of hundreds of different cultures from all over the universe co-existing in one world. Ben lost his entire family during the time when the Earth was reforming as part of Euretha, in fact the incident wiped out a large portion of the human race. Ben began to learn to adjust to his new life in a different world but he had no one else in the universe to look after him. Then he met Steph. Steph is a girl from another planet who but some incredible twist of fate crossed paths with Ben in a rather strange way.
Steph informs Ben about the impending doom of the universe. You see The Core (Euretha's onlt star) is dying and in less than a year it will go supernova and suck the entire universe into it's black hole and thus destroy existence itself. Steph and Ben go on a mission to save the universe via a small lead that Steph got from her now dead adopted father (long story). So how can you stop a star from exploding? How will Ben and Steph be able to overcome to surmounting odds against them? And most of all, why does Dominic (the head government official and secretly evil dictator) want to do everything in his power to make sure that the universe is destroyed?
I don't want to reveal anymore about it but I can tell you that so far it's an action packed story with everything you could want. Adventure, Mystery, Interesting science fiction, humor and of course love.
It's a work in progress to be completed before November of 2009. Sorry for boring you with this but I just needed to tell someone about it because I'm having so much fun with it and I just love the story myself. Anyway cheers.
