Zero
Are we sure we're ready?
What if you discovered the ultimate power source—something that could redefine what it means to be human. What if you discovered, in the simplest of places, that the universe was no longer out of reach?
And what if you learned that we've been though this before, and it didn't end well?
ZERO is a short story about second chances, and all the risks that come with them.

About the author
Kevin Tumlinson
74 books213 followersKevin Tumlinson is a thriller and speculative fiction author traveling the U.S. with his wife, an RV, a chihuahua named Mini, and a fully-loaded laptop. He writes multi-million-dollar blockbusters that can be read for only a few bucks.
Kevin grew up in Wild Peach Texas—an actual village wedged between the Brazos and San Bernard Rivers, with a population of less than 2,500 people and seemingly not a peach tree within a hundred miles of the place. He has had an eclectic career that includes engineering, teaching, broadcasting and media, and marketing. He has also been the recipient of numerous awards for writing, public speaking, and his work in advertising and marketing.
At the moment, Kevin—along with his wife and his dog—are traveling full-time in an RV, exploring the US as Kevin writes and promotes his books. The inside joke is that they are going on the worlds most far-ranging house hunt. They're only half joking.

This short story makes you think and also wanting to know more.
You're a rep for a very large battery company looking to expand its operations. You stop at the local coffee shop so you can write your report and send it off to the home office. That's when you meet Matthew.

Too short
It was a great story just wish it would have been longer. I would have liked to have known if Matthew and his family were aliens, or if they were crossing to another world or dimension. Great read though, makes you think.
