![]() ![]() ![]() All knowledge of the means by which he was sent is lost, perhaps forever. Major Delgano was sent into the future some hours before the holocaust of day zero. On this spot there appears annually the form of Major John Delgano, the first and only man to travel in time. I come back to it again and again and I can’t really tell you why: There has only ever been one attempt to send someone through time and essentially it blew up the world. My absolutely favorite time-travel story, in fact probably my favorite short story of all time, is The Man Who Walked Home, by James Tiptree Jr, in her short story collection Ten Thousand Light-Years from Home. But it leaves me with a sad, empty feeling afterwards and I’m not sure I like that. So it works for me in that it fits my criteria. The price the protaganist pays seems to be loneliness. He crams it all in there… being your own mother, your own father and your own recruiter to the Time-Travel Bureau. ![]() I think that the best known paradox story in time-travel fiction is All You Zombies by Robert Heinlein. It’s like magic though, in my opinion, and there alwayshas to be a price to pay for it. I love time-travel when it’s done properly. My blogging record this last month has been grim, because of school holidays, poorly children and poorly me, so I threw a question out on twitter asking for a topic and the lovely Elin Gregory came back with the subject of this post. ![]() ![]() ![]() “ U-230 set out to sea at dusk,” opens Chapter 15, for example. It became an instant bestseller on publication in 1969 and has rarely been out of print since, largely because of its taut prose style and electrifying story. Werner’s account of the war at sea is intensely personal, often reading like a novel. ![]() By the time he reached his own command-of the 769-ton U-415 in April 1944-the Battle of the Atlantic had been comprehensively lost. That submarine was lost through accident in August 1942, although much of her crew survived and were transferred to U-230, of which Werner became first lieutenant. When he became first watch officer of U-612 in April 1942, Germany seemed to be winning the all-important Battle of the Atlantic. ![]() When Herbert Werner first went to sea aged twenty in April 1941 in U-557, U-boats were sinking British ships twice as fast as they could be built he himself took part in the sinking of five merchantmen in that vessel. Yet back in 1939 that outcome was anything but certain, indeed Winston Churchill stated in his war memoirs that “The only peril that ever really frightened me during the war was the U-boat peril.” Of Germany’s 842 U-boats operational in the Second World War, no fewer than 779 were sunk-“iron coffins,” as Captain Herbert Werner called them, to some 28,000 submariners. ![]() ![]() "My sweet," he murmured… and Rowena sank down, fearing him for a new reason. When he cocked his head at her, she floated to him as if she were his Persephone, bound by an invisible chain. The king of the underworld himself could not have looked more regal and striking than Gareth at that moment. He was garbed all in black threaded with silver. The thronelike seat would have dwarfed a lesser man, but its graceful curves only enhanced the edge of dangerous masculinity held in check by Gareth. He sat at the end of the hall with one foot propped in a massive carved chair Rowena had never noticed before. ![]() For some unknown reason, Sir Gareth of Caerleon had chosen to play lord of the manor this night. It was written in his eyes, every elegant line of his being. The word she had sought for the change in him rose unbidden to her mind. A shock as warm and brilliant as lightning passed between them. ![]() ![]() She met Gareth's gaze across the teeming hall. ![]() ![]() ![]() He paled beneath the weathered, sun-beaten tan. ![]() He slammed his Stetson back on his head, shoving it down so far it shadowed the starkly etched planes of his jaw and cheekbones.

And with a little faith, a little trust, and a lot of love, two lonely hearts might just discover the true meaning of miracles. But Mary Warner may be exactly what this broken family needs.

The masses were hopeful back in October of 2022 - assured the months ahead would bring viral glory and temporary rights to the “biggest wave ever surfed” title. ![]() If a wave is surfed at Nazaré and isn’t claimed to be 100 feet, did it even exist?
