Description
What if your memories didn’t belong to you? What if they belonged to a timeline that never existed?
Time Lines is a gripping, genre-bending science fiction novel that blends time travel, ancient civilizations, and nonlinear memory into a story of sacrifice, resonance, and redemption.
When four astronauts are assigned to observe an experiment near the Moon, they uncover a truth that shatters the fabric of reality itself. The experiment didn’t just bend time—it shattered it, leaving humanity echoing with memories from timelines that never happened. Some remember other lives. Others remember the end of the world.
One astronaut must stay behind.
The others are thrown into the distant past, crash-landing in ancient Nazca, where their presence gives rise to the mystery of the Nazca Lines—giant glyphs that will one day mark the grave of humanity’s forgotten future.
As reality unravels, governments scramble to contain the phenomenon known as NTR—Neural Temporal Resonance, while cults, rogue agents, and children born with memories of alternate lives rise from the chaos. In the end, only one timeline can hold.
But the price of stability… is memory itself.
If you love:
Mind-bending sci-fi in the spirit of Seveneves and Interstellar
Archaeological mysteries with real-world roots
Nonlinear storytelling that rewards emotional and intellectual depth
Then you’ll be haunted, challenged, and transformed by Time Lines.
Time Lines isn’t just a story about time travel. It’s a story of love, of loss, and of the impossible choice to leave your family in the past... so the rest of us might have a future.
Start reading now—and remember what was almost forgotten.
Advance Praise
Absolutely brilliant. A stunning sci-fi-philosophy hybrid.
Part science fiction, part philosophy, this is fundamentally a book about what it means to grieve, remember, and dream. It asks: why is it important that human beings remember, and why is it important that we be remembered? Combining a nonlinear, cyclical plot with well-formed characters and thoughtful meditations on the passage of the years, this is a must-read novel. The "archive of failed tomorrows" was my favorite part. Let’s hope for a sequel in the future!
Best new sci fi
If you can keep up with the story lines this is amazing. Extremely intricate. It is a deep web of time and history but very well done. Best read slow and really take it in. Probably going to have to read it again to see what i missed. Darren Aronofsky should direct this movie just sayin…if anyone is smart enough to see the vision of this book like that.
Imaginative and haunting
"Time Lines" is a provocative cautionary tale detailing potential consequences of wormhole experimentation. One of its frightening premises is that people's thoughts experienced in the future within parallel timelines become dislodged and are involuntarily absorbed (feeling like memories and/or images from dreams) by those living in the present day. Along the way, we vividly experience the heartbreak repeatedly endured by four astronauts who are only peripherally aware that the mission they've been chosen for is an attempt to have order preserved within the universe, which will be fatally fractured on a quantum level without their intervention. With mind-bending creativity, author Giulio Savo catapults us into the harrowing alternate worlds that wind up being generated on Earth, exploring humankind suffering on personal levels due to multiple parameters within which we experience life becoming negatively altered. A compelling and skillfully crafted work.Amazing unique story about, loss, and the importance of relationships
This book was an amazing read, anyone who is interested in a dystopian that follows a story of memory, loss, and the importance of relationships, would definitely love this book! The whole time, I could not set this book down. The way the characters interact with each other, but also how the characters were able to interact with the readers through the sharing of their story, was truly something unique. If you are looking for your next binge-worthy read, this book should be on the top of your list, you will most certainly be transported to another world and won't want to set it down.
