Description

Time is a motherf@#er.

The rules that govern time machines are strict. Penalties for violations are severe and unpredictable. Ask decorated war hero John Banks how he knows.

History will record that the end of human civilization occurs six years from now, that a demonic virus will claim six billion lives, and that one John Arthur Banks died two weeks ago in a California wildfire. Forensics confirmed it. The Governor of California and the Joint Chiefs of Staff attended his funeral. It made all the news streams.

And yet…

John Banks is alive. Thanks to a little sleight of hand and a time machine, John’s cheated death. That’s the upside. The downside? It falls to him to prepare the world for the coming demon apocalypse. He can’t change history. Time won’t permit it, but he can prepare for the aftermath. Six years till doomsday and John’s determined to cheat death one more time, on a global scale. Failing that, he’ll have to lead the survivors out of Hell. There’s only one problem with that option.

The Highway out of Hell is not on GPS.


The second book of E.W. Doc Parris' epic WalrusTech Universe, picks up right where The Dent in the Universe concludes. With the world flying apart at the seams who would you call to prepare for the Apocalypse? What's your plan to save billions of lives?

Time is a motherf@#er.

The rules that govern time machines are strict. Penalties for violations are severe and unpredictable. Ask decorated war hero John Banks how he knows.

History will record that...

Advance Praise

Praise for The Dent in the Universe, Book One of the WalrusTech Universe:

“…Takes readers on a roller-coaster ride of technology, murder, missing persons, and chaos. The fast-paced and action-packed narrative immediately engrosses readers, delivering multiple storylines which are connected. Parris's unique and creative approach in bringing them together is commendable. The level of chaos and destruction throughout the book is spectacular making me wonder just how many ways Parris can end civilization. Mystery, mayhem, and twisted technology collide in this captivating page-turner.”

John Kelly


“What a great ride. In the vein of a Blake Crouch mind bender, Parris writes a very entertaining tale.”

Adam Autera


“The author does a fantastic job of crafting a unique and powerful world that brings a rich blend of sci-fi and mystery storytelling. The detail the author puts into the more tech and scientific nature of the “time travel” element was great to see, and the inclusion of more business, mainstream-style approaches to the technology itself feels very real to the story being told and our own world as a whole.”

Anthony Avina


“I was intrigued by the blurb but also worried that Parris would be trying to deliver too much and unable to pull it off - instead I was absolutely blown away by this amazing book. Yes, there is quite a bit going on, but it all weaves together to capture you and keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. The descriptions are vivid, and it's like watching a horror movie unfold around you.”
