Summary
A terrifying leap into the fourth dimension... or an elaborate, impossible lie? With a blinding flash and a deafening report, quiet schoolmaster Gottfried Plattner is erased from existence. Nine days later, he violently materializes out of thin air - dishevelled, bloodied, and bearing a terrifying mark of his journey. He has been turned inside out. His heart now beats on the right side of his chest. His organs are transposed. His dominant hand has reversed. The physical evidence is undeniable - and mathematically impossible - unless Plattner was hurled clean out of three-dimensional space. In a twilight void beneath a sickly green sun, he roamed a silent, abyssal landscape. Unseen and unheard, he watched the living like a helpless phantom, surrounded by the drifting, agonized faces of the dead. Did Plattner discover a forgotten dimension... or did something in the dark discover him? Unlock the portal to the Fourth Dimension. Press play now and plunge into H.G. Wells’ eerie sci-fi classic!
