A lot of strange things have been attached to Nikola Tesla on the internet including time travel and communications with Mars.
One such story supposedly recorded by a New York Herald reporter in March 1895 is that Tesla while conducting an experiment was nearly electrocuted and had an “Out of time” experience where he could see a little way into the future and the past.
However, what is fact is that in the early morning hours of March 13, 1895 the South Fifth Avenue building that housed Tesla’s lab caught fire.
It started in the basement of the building and was so intense Tesla’s 4th floor lab burned and collapsed into the second floor.
By coincidence, perhaps, H G Wells published his “Time Machine in the same year. This gave me an idea for a story for my intrepid adventurers.
In my new book “The Space Between Time” to be published on 1st December, Nikola Tesla while working on his electrical resonant transformer accidentally causes a massive electromagnetic pulse which shifts time into an alternative parallel world. However, only a few people noticed the difference.
H G Wells is one of them of course and decides the only way to return the world to normality is to call again on the services of James and Elizabeth. Naturally they’d rather have a peaceful life but as usual Wells makes sure they no option but to help.
I hope you will you enjoy it.
