Leland 'Mike' Erikson, a high school teacher with a high IQ and an eidetic memory, is recruited by a long time friend (Reggie) to do a review of a highly confidential project which is coming up for a change in funding from the Government. After a good deal of hesitation on Mike's part; he eventually says yes and ends up on at a research facility outside of San Diego.
Here he finds himself an outsider from a group of scientists who are convinced he is going to shut down the project and trying to determine if the Albuquerque Door does what they say is does. That is when everything starts to go wrong.
This novel is a must read for anyone who enjoys good science fiction. It is plausible enough to happen in real life, but still is outlandish enough to question if it could actually happen.
I enjoyed reading this novel and found the subtle humor, numerous pop culture references, and intriguing storyline to make a perfect fit. The story at times was a little slow, but made up for it with an amazing fast paced ending. And although it had some technical jargon which I only partially understood as I never took any high-level math or science classes.
