Using a
favorite theme in science fiction of “what if?” into a “why
not,”authors Beverly Knauer and Murray Rosenthal have crafted an
out-of-the-box science fiction story that may at first seem to be
impossible, yet when you think about it, you are probably going to
shake your head at the end of your reading and say, why not?
What
the authors have done is to build on a theory advanced by Nikola
Tesla, a Serbian-American inventor, and futurist, who is known as the
father of scalar energy and who experimented with and created
inventions using scalar energy. For those of us who are not familiar
with scalar energy, myself included, it is defined as subtle energy
that can be harnessed to produce healing energy frequencies that are
beneficial to our health.
One of the principal characters in
The Exigent Earth: Recently Placed On The Endangered
Species List: Humans Dr. Nikolai
Sparsinsky, while living in the Soviet Union, uncovered secret,
powerful, and fundamental principles of energy, which was an
adaptation of Tesla's energy system. He decided that he would not
introduce his discovery to the world at large until he was free of
the Russian regime.
Eventually, with the help of his future
wife, Virginia, who was a geoscientist, he emigrates to the United
States where he changes his family name to Sparkman and sets up a
laboratory built into a mountainside in the Pryor Mountains of
Montana. The US and Israeli Governments sponsor the building of the
lab and his research work. Nikolai and an Israeli colleague, who had
helped with the construction of the lab, mistrusted governments, and
thus they also build in a hidden cave another lab where Nikolai would
conduct the secret part of his real work, which would not be divulged
to the sponsoring governments.
Among Nikolai's experiments
was the discovery where a healthy cell would be able to cure an
unhealthy one. As we learn, this was a theory that “Einstein spent
his remaining years of life trying to solve by attempting to tie
together all known phenomena with the intent to explain the behavior
and nature of all the energy and matter in existence. In other words,
essentially unlocking the secrets of the universe.”
As
the narrative unfolds, Nikolai dies before the birth of his son Zac
leaving Virginia to care for him with the help of a Native
American, Olivia. Unfortunately, Virginia also dies and Zac, who is
now six years old, is raised by his uncle Brian and Olivia, both of
whom play important roles in his life. It should be mentioned that
through the voice of Olivia, the authors insert another theme into
the narrative and something to ponder, the value of spiritual
concepts such as traditional wisdom and shamanic healing.
Referred
to as her “Child of Light,” Olivia informs Zac that he has an
important mission in life. Olivia explains to Zac that “long ago
ancient civilizations told about a prophecy-that's something they
believe is coming in the future-about some important changes that
will happen to our planet Earth. These changes are happening now, and
he is here to help people.” Olivia further tells Zac that she is
here to help keep his light shining as he possesses a special gift.
It is this unique gift that eventually will cause him all
kinds of difficulties with government authorities who are watching
his every move as they want to know if there were any experiments
that his father had hidden from them and if Zac was carrying on his
father's research projects. Was he in possession of any notebooks,
papers, tapes and other writings that belonged to his father?
Due
to my lack of knowledge with much of the science incorporated into
the story, I have to admit that the reading of the novel was at times
demanding. Nonetheless, the authors did enlighten me with
explanations that made sense. Moreover, they did their research and
did not take shortcuts in explaining much of the theories integrated
into the plot and the world they created. Kudos to them for also
creating a setting that becomes part of the plot and seems real
enough to accept along with the action and everyday lives of the
characters.
Slowing building suspense with its twists and
turns, this absorbing novel weaves together some thought-provoking
content that in the words of one of its authors, Beverly Knauer,
“will expand the mind and imagination.”
