Jordan Berk ’08 just published his debut sci-fi novel, The Timestream Verdict, in September. It is a love letter to time travel fiction, and centers on a trial for the first-ever case of “temporal homicide,” time-travel murder, and the jury pulled in from across the modern timestream that must reach a critical verdict. The victim is a Berkeley physics professor, colloquially known as “the mother of time travel.” Naturally, a good portion of the story takes place in and celebrates the author’s beloved Berkeley. The Timestream Verdict is available everywhere now. https://linktr.ee/jordanberkauthor
