Five Engineering students at a prestigious university embark on Project Warp Speed. The project is an effort to build the first functional warp speed device to explore the galaxies at faster than light travel. Instead of a Warp Speed Device the team is shot back in time and forced to explore ancient, past, modern and future civilizations as they journey through time.
Aided by their AI, A.T.H.E.N.A., the team moves from time and location as they learn about the harsh realities and amazing advancements of humans ranging from 10,000BC to 2500 AD. During their jumps through time they are met with various challenges, pursued by the Watchers, and have moral decisions to make about their role and purpose. In Book Two the team is faced with harsh realities and morality of war and must decide their role in history.
