The Cascade Annihilator — Chris James

“I killed you, you know that? And now I gotta kill you again…”

Dimension researcher Lucas Hunter returns to confront his nemesis, Dietrich, in an explosive showdown. But now Lucas's enemy is armed with the most devastating weapon imaginable.

In reality one, the Second Internet Café is itself under renewed threat. The return of Dietrich has given its enemies the means to see it closed down once and for all, before it can be destroyed. From among its staff, senior analyst Paula Featherstone finds herself unwittingly thrown into the centre of the battle to keep control of the Second Internet Café.

But the conflict between Lucas Hunter and Dietrich's universe has captured the attention of other, more advanced realities, who make unusual efforts to influence events. As danger of a military strike on Europe in our universe increases, Lucas jumps to an alternate 1988, which is on the brink of World War Three, to confront Dietrich. Back in the Second Internet Café, Paula and others struggle to keep the facility functioning so Lucas can return.

Lucas clashes with Dietrich in a devastating final battle, where he must defeat both Dietrich and the weapon that can destroy our universe: the cascade annihilator.
