It was just a hoverboard. Nobody was supposed to die.



Breaking Gravity is an action-packed and gripping thriller, full of suspense and twists.

Dale Adams has worked hard to leave his troubled past behind for a brighter future at Emory University. But when he makes a discovery that will change humanity forever, avoiding the spotlight becomes the least of his concerns.Small experiments have attracted big attention. And not all who notice want Dale to be successful. Or even alive.As Dale's world collapses around him, his fate intertwines with that of a girl he hardly knows. Their only hope for survival is to disappear into Atlanta's seedy underbelly, the very place Dale has tried so hard to leave behind. Time is running out, but if they can survive long enough science will be rewritten by the most unlikely of authors.



At its heart, this present-day adventure asks a number of questions that today’s scientists are still wrestling with:

How fast is gravity?

is gravity? How is gravity communicated? What if that signal could be intercepted and adjusted?

What if gravity could be artificially inflated or deflated? Even reversed?

This is a ride and a half. Perfectly paced. Written so well that you lose yourself in the story. Couldn't fault it. I HIGHLY recommend this book. This is not just a good book, but a brilliantly executed concept. A new author to watch.- Dedicated Book Lover, Amazon Review. I go through SF at a 2 or 3 book clip per week, but this was a nonstop ride from start to finish (7 hours). Would love to get a follow-up with the "Gravity" concept in space. Well done Mr. Walters!- Rebroscoe, Amazon Reviewi am an unusual reader, I have no patience abut I don't usually read a book at once...I DID this one. I couldn't put it down.- Don Avant, Amazon ReviewWow what a ride from orbiting coke cans to Hong Kong financing. What a great read. Solid writing with characters that make things happen.- Amazon Customer, Amazon ReviewGreat read, well written; loved the humor; superb entertainment; fascinated by the mind that produced this; left me wanting more! It's always fun to discover new authors and I'm definitely looking forward to his next book.- Susan DeG, Amazon ReviewThis is "Martian" quality writing. Mr. Walters' writing skills let you slide into the narrative on page one while he spins a great tale that draws you in. Be sure not to read it until you can finish it; you really can't put it down. -- great fun!- Charles Beckett, Amazon ReviewYou won't be disappointed.- CarlosRon, Amazon Review
