| Plot Summary of All of an Instant |
|---|
"Unusual plot about time travel over the Earth in a dimension that behaves like water. Lots of different groups emerge from the Earth and battle over control of time. Problems arise from all the battles that threaten the existance of the Earth. Solution requires cooperation from three vary different perspectives, including the begining of history (human history), the end of history, and the very idea of the instant (timelessness)."
R Gambrellie, Resident Scholar
