Russia.with its wild untamed lands of vast open Steppes, of marshlands, of rivers, of unfathomable people, some as wild as their country, yet with a culture of religion, of art, of buildings of great beauty. Into this forbidding landscape came the French with all their arrogant innocence, proclaiming a victory they had yet to win. Amongst them Guy De Tournet, Captain of cavalry, who kept silent vigil over his own thoughts. It would take more than defiant words to win this war. It would take men, blood and guts. His and that of other valiant Frenchmen; the cannon fodder. The year was 1812, the antagonists Bonaparte, who fashioned himself like a Roman Emperor, and Alexander I , the suspicious autocratic Tsar of all Russia.

The thuds of their regimented strides resounded eerily through the streets, swallowed up by the crowds, as the three marched of to war, and into history.

The passing of time can be as meaningful, or as meaning less as a glimmer of water, or as painful as a SHARD OF GLASS. No matter what period it illuminates, and briefly washes over, in its haste to tell yet another story, as timeless as history itself, it casts its magic. Such is the story of Zac Guthrie, an Anglo- American youngster, afflicted by both phenomena. Is it a gift or a curse he possesses, which sends him off into the realms of the past? It goes where it wills, with him enchained. Go with him. Don’t try to understand the logic, for there is none. It is as it is.
