About this listen

In Chaos theory, slight, even extremely minor changes in the input assumptions and parameters describing a world system can cause a dramatically different outcome. The Butterfly Effect.
“What you cannot imagine, you cannot discover” according to Albert Einstein.
H. G. Wells, like the Biblical prophets of old, did indeed imagine and envision the horrors of the atom bomb in his amazingly prophetic 1914 book “The World Set Free.” And we pick up, here, where he left off on an alternate timeline to destruction.
This science-fact filled historical novel, The Nazi A-Bomb, considers an only slightly different alternative timeline. Throughout this harrowing text we follow the real-life desperate back and forth race between America and Nazi Germany during WWII -- to be the first to construct a working atomic bomb. And while our present historical timeline suggests that America was first, that outcome was at no point during the war in Europe entirely certain. It could have gone either way up until the very end!
In 1939, Germany was years ahead of America in developing the theory and research essential to the construction of The Nazi A-Bomb. Even Britian was ahead of America in theoretical understanding. America struggled mightily to come from far behind during the entire war and ultimately prevailed on the current timeline only after the war in Europe had ended.
Under Chaos Theory, only a few minor revisions in research funding, brilliance of thought, or the availability or quality of graphite and heavy water supplies might have changed the outcome. Germany would have been the acknowledged first to demonstrate nuclear criticality. They had already designed, built, and operated several sub-critical heavy water reactors. With an upgraded version they planned to produce substantial quantities of the very recently discovered, highly fissionable, artificial transuranic element initially only known as number 94. Later element number 94 was known as Plutonium, specifically fissionable isotope, Pu-239. The stuff of atomic bombs.
During this highly plausible timeline, which almost happened, we will be traveling down a closely parallel but slightly different timeline in the multiverse of alternative realities. In this timeline, two leading German physicists Nobel Prize Winner Dr. Werner Heisenberg and Dr. Kurt Diebner, join forces to beat their American counterpart and competitor, Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer and his Manhattan Project to the finish.
And on this slightly different alternate timeline, Germany becomes the first to possess the knowledge and the ability to display the awesome power of the atom. This change would have dramatically altered the outcome of World War II.
On the alternate timeline will Moscow be in ruins, Russia defeated; will London cower under the shadow and threat of nuclear annihilation; and would New York be the Nazis next target. Only extreme distances involved, exceeding the limitations of the Nazi V-2 rockets may prevent it carrying The Nazi A-Bomb, its atomic payload to America’s shores!
A nuclear Nazi Germany would have changed the world history timeline forever. And that outcome came perilously close to actually happening as the war raged on in Europe toward its ultimate end! Read this thrilling historical novel and know that this almost happened!
