| Summary:
The Sliders are stuck in the dullest world they've ever
found... until Rembrandt picks up a science-fiction book that reads like the story of
their lives. It speaks of dimensional travel and a mutant species called
"Gormaks" which sound supiciously like "Kromaggs." Quinn tracks down
the reclusive author, Isaac Clark, who confesses that his "novel" is in fact the
history of his birth-world; he too is a slider. He knew Michael and Elizabeth Mallory, who
helped develop the bio-weapon that virtually wiped out the Kromaggs of his universe. He
agrees to supply the coordinates that will reunite Colin and Quinn with their true parents
and their home world. But when Clark and his daughter slide there with our heroes, it
becomes clear that Clark had an ulterior motive for returning: He's an exile with
dangerous knowledge about something hideous that happened there twenty years ago. And just
when everything seems to be going right for a change, the Sliders are forced to face the
fact that nothing here is what it seems... |
