By the Time of My Tears

A war is being fought not on Earth and not even within our universe. Arseniy Vasilievich Goltsov, a man endowed with a unique gift and chosen for it to serve as an exor, realit y-operator—without even knowing it—prevents the war from ending. One day he realizes the true purpose of his work and refuses to “carry on.” This triggers a very harsh response from the “owners” of the powerful system that controls the ruling structures and law-enforcement agencies. Goltsov faces a choice: surrender and preserve his own life and that of his loved ones, or subject everyone to mortal risk—trust new friends and try to save Earth and its people from the dreadful fate set for them.
