The Eternity Machine

by Vaughn Heppner, Logan White
The Eternity Machine by Vaughn Heppner, Logan White
Unrated

On an oceanic research vessel, the gifted but lonely geologist Dr. Selene Khan has found an enigmatic riddle near the epicenter of the 2004 Indian Ocean Earthquake. She is stunned to discover a deep underwater dome possibly thousands of years old.

While trying to decipher the ancient puzzle, her crew is murdered and Selene must swim for her life, all alone in the middle of the Indian Ocean.

Halfway across the world in France, covert agent Jack Elliot has uncovered a sinister plot involving an incredible 900 grams of antimatter. Hidden clues lead his team to Egypt. But the faceless enemy knows he is coming. While matching wits against genetically superior foes, Jack barely escapes with his life while rescuing Dr. Selene Khan from the clutches of a secret society older than the pyramids.

Now, two strangers suspicious of everyone must work together toward a common goal. They are in a deadly race against genetically enhanced scientists and soldiers. The others are attempting to repair an alien machine of incredible age and for a mysterious, possibly otherworldly purpose. Its original use led to an ancient catastrophe that almost destroyed all life. If the machine runs again…it will change what it means to be human.

THE ETERNITY MACHINE is a lightning-paced adventure... utterly unpredictable right up to its stunning conclusion.

Vaughn Heppner

Vaughn Heppner's love for storytelling started in the snowbanks of Canada, where his childhood days were filled with dreams of distant worlds and adventures beyond his frosty front yard. But it wasn’t until a move to sunny Central California that his journey into writing truly began, fueled by an unexpected gift—his very first typewriter. Heppner found himself typing away in early mornings, crafting stories that echoed the same sense of wonder he’d experienced as a child, searching for magic in everyday moments.

It wasn’t long before he dove headfirst into writing full-time, blending his passion for science fiction, fantasy, and adventure. His most well-known works, such as the Lost Starship series, take readers on thrilling intergalactic journeys where humanity’s survival is never guaranteed, and where the characters are as complex as the alien worlds they explore. With an impressive portfolio spanning multiple genres, Heppner’s stories often strike a delicate balance between pulse-pounding action and profound character development.

Heppner's writing is not just about grand battles and high-tech spaceships—it’s about the people behind the machines and the way they struggle, grow, and find purpose in the most chaotic of circumstances. With every novel, Heppner invites readers into universes that are both alien and deeply human. Whether navigating the stars or exploring the depths of the human psyche, his work captures the essence of what it means to face the unknown with courage, and at times, with sacrifice.

When he’s not penning his next great adventure, Heppner can be found enjoying the natural beauty of the world around him, reflecting on his varied experiences. With each new book, Vaughn Heppner reminds us that the greatest journeys are the ones that take us beyond our wildest dreams—and into the very heart of what it means to be human.

From The Lost Starship to his numerous other series, Heppner's work continues to captivate and transport readers to places only he could imagine.
