The Tethys Report (The Rise of the Chirons Book 1)

In the year 2077, the world’s land is shrinking due to climate change. On the brink of war, the polarized nations are desperate for new resources. From the Western Alliance, a team of soldiers and scientists is sent to investigate what happened to the mission to Lake Victor, an ancient lake below the ice of Antarctica. One member of this group, Jake Bloom, is a world weary geologist who is reluctantly brought to the mission in order to find out what happened to his old flame who disappeared suddenly eight years previously. What he finds will change his life and alter the fate of the world.

THE TETHYS REPORT is a novel about what could happen in the future and what could have happened in the past. As the reader shares the journey with the team sent to Antarctica, a tour of the world that exists more than fifty years in the future is revealed as well as portions of the world that existed millions of years in the past. Although this book is fiction, it has intriguing possibilities based on geology, paleontology, origin of life studies, human anthropology, cosmology, quantum mechanics, international relations and psychology. This is speculative fiction at its finest where the journey leads to a huge lake under the ice of Antarctica that will be ravaged by changes in weather. Find out what happens when the journey leads underneath the ice!
