    About this ebook

    Albert aka Alberta is the story of Albert (Alberta) Sawyer, bold genius and conflicted Morlock, pursuing justice through a time radio, in a chaotic Multiverse where logic wars with the narrow-minded ambitions of the HiDimBes, and where disaster, natural or otherwise, can disturb the political and social future in a millisecond.

     

    He, and later she, devises an audacious plan to win freedom for those oppressed by the HiDimBes. A great adventure ensues.
