ProbablePolis

About the Book

Dr. Moebius, a madman with a flair for the absurd, creates a Holographic, simulated Universe that he calls ProbablePolis, and then promptly kidnaps his senior lab assistant, Dr. Limberly Rondell, to vanishes into it for all time. Limberly's husband, Shard Rondell, a special forces commando with the MoonClock Project, goes in after her through the MoonClock Gate and is never heard from again. Moebius thinks he has all bases covered, but he's done far too good a job of programming the LOGOS, an autonomous sentient software program that runs all ProbablePolis; the LOGOS manages to figure out how to coax the Rondells ten year old daughter, little Nowar Rondell, to come into the breach to help save her Mother and Father, and hopefully, all of ProbablePolis...

This book is a Theosophany of sorts, an adventurous journey through metaphysical pop culture, combining elements of humor, quantum physics, gnosticism, history, mythology, geometry, musicology and fantasy into what could otherwise be misconstrued as an exercise in an action-adventure.

About the Author

Richard Dell has been involved in numerous advanced technology projects, and it is from his experiences with the interface between Quantum Mechanics and the Theories of Relativity that he derived some of the contextual inspiration for this book. The inspiration for the history and the engine that is behind the content and it's Theosophanical bent lies in unseen hands and from unknown places. Richard lives and works in Raleigh North Carolina and Danville Virginia supporting a family-owned energy transportation business called the Advanced Vehicle Research Center. He speaks fluent Gaelic and is planning to support the first human settlement on Mars with a new advanced propulsion engine. He started writing ProbablePolis four years ago as an exercise to bring he and his daughter closer together. His Daughter, Rowan DelldeRonde is equally eclectic, more than slightly brilliant, and hopes to develop warp drive someday after she finishes school in Annapolis and becomes an astronaut. She was responsible for many of the best ideas in ProbablePolis, as well as the title. Currently she and her Father have the other two books in the trilogy under development; PlausiblePolis and PossiblePolis.
