Synopsis
The compelling conclusion to The Lightning in the Collied Night and The Loss of What Is Past: In 22nd-century Aotearoa (New Zealand), Earth struggles to recover from the World War of 2057 while the world's chief physicist and her husband grapple with an immeasurable loss. When a seemingly unstoppable threat to Earth emerges, the Māori scientists must overcome their grief and decide whether to violate the most sacred values and beliefs of their people in a desperate attempt to prevent Armageddon.
Although this novel is the conclusion to a trilogy, it was written to stand alone and thus can be read independently of the other two books.
The five main characters and some secondary characters are Māori, the indigenous people of New Zealand-very rare for a sci-fi novel. This novel explores the culture, religion, and language of the Māori in a futuristic sci-fi setting.

About the Author
David Backman was born and raised in Minneapolis and has lived
most of his life in the Twin Cities. However, he is also officially
(by order of the governor of Texas) a naturalized Texas citizen, y'all.
Waves Toward the Pebbled Shore explores once more the universe Dave
created in his debut novel, The Lightning in the Collied Night, which is
in its 2nd Edition, and expanded on in its sequel, The Loss of What Is
Past.
Dave retired in 2023 from a 44-year career in information technology
that focused on enterprise software architecture, design, and
development. He wrote a lot during his career, including co-authoring
a couple of books, but he didn't write fiction ... at least he didn't
intentionally write fiction. In addition to writing, Dave enjoys volunteering
and spending time with his wife Joanna and their three children.
His main hobby is searching for a parallel universe in which the
Minnesota Vikings have won a Super Bowl, or even played in a Super
Bowl in the past half-century.
Dave is a life-long sci-fi fan. He earned a bachelor's degree in
Mathematics (most of which he forgot a long time ago) and an MBA
in Information Management. He holds certifications in several IT-related
subjects including all the major cloud providers, which helps
him keep his head in the clouds while writing.
