"You know, we're in trouble up to our eyeballs this time," Art Bonner announced.

"Are you referring to our nation or just the six of us?" the lawyer pointedly asked his friend.

"I guess I was just thinking of you and me," the young fireman sheepishly admitted.

It was utterly scintillating to Terry Morgan how it was possible to bring America to its knees with so little effort. The exercise caused the schoolteacher to understand the intoxicating euphoria that drives computer hackers and the creators of viruses to risk imprisonment and public disgrace to achieve similar goals.


These excerpts are from the first book in the fictional trilogy, 'Time and Space'. The novels are a compilation of short stories arranged as dream sequences created inside the damaged mind of a comatose schoolteacher including:

-Terry Morgan and his imaginary friends almost destroy the economy of the United States of America with the aid of just some computers and clever timing.

-An impromptu collection of firefighters, rush off to a building blaze only to discover there are more people trapped inside than they have rescuers or time to save.

-Terry takes his friends on a journey through time to seek its beginning and end and then through space to find its outer limit. Their search for infinity ends in thoughtful discussions about the creation of matter and the conflicts between science and theological dogma.

-A pleasant trek into the Wind River wilderness of Wyoming turns into a terrifying experience. Terry is forced to choose a way for his group of friends to escape a dangerous wildfire.

-A doctor specializing in sports medicine used his talents to turn a poverty stricken street urchin into a world-class sports phenomenon. There's just one problem with how he did it.
