This is a true account of how, following a disaster in CERN on 5 April 2012, you and everyone else on Earth stopped living. The disaster was caused by a particle called a "Cosmic Monopole", which had been wandering the Universe since the Big Bang. It was trapped by one of the CERN detectors and transformed into a black hole. This grew, absorbed two men and, moments later, time stopped everywhere in the universe except near fragments of mysterious blue crystal: Time Crystals. Irish schoolgirl Catriona, who was visiting CERN, has to descend through the whole history of the universe collecting crystals in an attempt not only to restart time but to solve the mystery of her father's death years before. This story is based on extensive research by British author Wyken Seagrave guided by documents he has obtained which prove the veracity of this apparently unbelievable story. But, to make it comprehensible to the non-scientist, he has created the pictures and added some details based on what he thinks probably happened. This does not change the fact that this story is fundamentally true. He has also added biographies of the main characters, a glossary of key terms and a bibliography. Reviews on Amazon from the first edition of Cosmic Monopole: Truly bizarre, utterly unique I've never read a novel quite like this before. The author takes you on an exciting adventure full of unforgettable and vivid imagery. Solidly written with each character's personality shining through. If you find physics fascinating you will not be disappointed by the author's keen intellect and clear understanding of this most challenging (for me anyway) scientific subject. This is not a novel I will forget anytime soon, I would highly recommend it. Andrewly Very imaginative tale Anybody interested in a very imaginative and engrossing sci fi story needs to check this one out. I have been reading sci fi for decades and this story has elements that surprise me which is very unusual considering the number of novels and stories I have over the years. ric freeman A fascinating book An amazing book - I literally could not put it down… and I was reading it in Acrobat! Not the easiest format but it didn't matter, I wanted to know what happened next each time I had to leave it. I have a huge interest in The Hadron Collider so it was a foregone conclusion that I would enjoy this book and I wasn't disappointed. A great story - one that I can not wait to read the next episode of - with very complex characters and even more complex relationships. The author manages to combine his obvious extensive knowledge of the subject with an incredible imagination. I loved it! Vicki Time Crystal (of which this is the first book) is perhaps the first work of fiction which takes the reader on a journey back through the whole history of the universe. The author has gone to extraordinary lengths to make this novel as accurate as possible within the constraints of writing a superb story. This book includes a Glossary, Character Descriptions and Bibliography. So what's it about? The cosmic monopole has been wandering the Universe since it was created in the Big Bang. Its existence is fundamental to the way the Universe works. It is finally trapped by the powerful magnetic fields inside the ATLAS detector at CERN, Geneva, and begins to absorb protons from the LHC. Soon it is transformed into a black hole, and absorbs Irish school-teacher Sam and Chinese-Irish scientist Michael Zhang. Moments later, time stops everywhere in the universe except near fragments of mysterious blue crystals: Time Crystals! Thus begins an adventure which will see Sam's step-daughter Catriona embark on an adventure which will tak
