Sayer. Once together, the two find themselves being led to seemingly obscure points in history, trying to stop a madman who, through a limited, yet disturbing application of the doctor's discovery, can now send his mind back in time. And who, through mental coercion and oppression--bordering on the edges of possession--is consequently changing history for his own ends, by changing the people who will make it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis discovery portends a paradigm shift of unparalleled proportions. Leading the two to question: Is the discovery intended to advance humanity, or destroy it? Are we truly destined to be more...than human?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThematic content and style of G.
