The Cydronium Chronicles (Paperback)



Twenty Years of Secret Experiments Gone Wrong
The Cydronium Chronicles is an intriguing tale of scientific experiments gone wrong. The main characters are four young aspiring rock musicians. The story involves a chemical known as Cydronium which is being experimented with by the government; it takes place across a timespan which begins in the spring of 1981and concludes around the turn of the millennium. It involves precognition through chemically induced dreams, which result from the characters being accidentally exposed to these chemicals. The plot then follows their lives and activities throughout the two-decade period. A parallel plot follows the ongoing tests being performed by a fictitious agency, which I have created to add spice to this story. The story touches on such subjects as rock music, politics, gun control, drug abuse, religious cults, fears and phobias, crime and clandestine government-sanctioned experimentation in some highly strange fields. And of course dreams, which is a recurring theme throughout the course of this story. The material is serious and somber, in the event these things could quite possibly happen; though there are some spots where the story is actually quite humorous. It is not a tale of the supernatural, although at times it may seem to be, but rather a detailed account of what can happen when the human mind is tampered with. The experiments conducted and the persons conducting them have all sprung from the author's imagination and, hopefully, that is where they shall remain.
