Interesting thoughts…could have used them when figuring out the truth myself.
One thing I can promise you, because I’ve promised it at Amazon discussion, and because I did once torture a friend with this idea who was giving me feedback while writing the book…
In an the next “Series” (after the first X books) Tom does NOT master Temporamastery and travel back in time and sleep with Rupert’s mother. That categorically doesn’t happen.
No, instead, he travels back in time and to earth and becomes his own father….
No…no…no…that doesn’t happen either.
