In the past, technology advances have led to major changes in ship propulsion and deployment. In the 19th century, sail gave way to steam engines. In the 20th century steam gave way to diesel engines, and in the 21st century diesel gave way to microfusion reactors. Nowhere is the introduction of new technologies more pronounced than in naval combatants. The cover painting depicts the first French battleship, the Napoleon, in 1850 to employ steam engines. Naval battles have been won or lost based on the judicious deployment of new technology. The story of Sea Change takes place in the future around 2080, when microfusion propulsion based on the discovery by the scientist, Cédric J. Rothschild, was beginning to be commercialized. By that time, nuclear ballistic missile submarines had become obsolete as a means of deterrence after the Great War thirty years earlier. Submarines were no longer considered a credible threat--that is, until the Syndicate deployed ballistic missile submarines with microfusion propulsion reactors--not for force projection, but for the purpose of piracy on the high seas and extortion. The reader is invited into a journey of science future involving spies, subterfuge and conspiracies on a global scale as the Syndicate seeks to subvert and conquer the world. Around the same time, another technology, also based on Rothschild's controversial variable light-speed theory was emerging--antigravity. Antigravity would forever transform every mode of transformation. Sea Change is the third novel of the trilogy with The Timecharger and La Charlière in the continuing saga depicting the conflict between good and evil in the battleground of deploying disruptive technologies.
