After a risky physics experiment transports the island University of Halcyon to a new world, engineer Dave Schuster and his fellow students struggle to survive in this alien, hostile environment.

“In a truly original sci-fi fantasy that literally transcends space and time, Kazmaier hurls readers into a world with shady morals, dubious friendships and exotic surroundings. It’s one turn after another as this colonization epic unfolds.”
-Robert McCallum

“In his first novel, Kazmaier combines the knowledge of a scientist with the imagination of a story teller. The Halcyon Dislocation is an incredible tale that seems frighteningly credible, thanks to its compelling insights into human nature. It’s an adventure; one that progresses on the weighty consequences of moral choices made without regard to morality. This novel will leave you thinking about freedom; what it really is, and how to preserve it.”
-Patricia Paddey

“In the great tradition of cautionary tales, The Halcyon Dislocation explores the intersection of faith and science when the world of its protagonist is turned upside down. Chilling and relevant, this story is a wild ride that shakes the foundation of its character’s faith and world view.”
-Scott Weisbrod

“A gripping story with great ideas and insightful characterization”
-Mark Jokinen
