Adult • Science Fiction • Fantasy • Adventure
Doctor Silas Coade is the physician aboard voyages that span centuries and modes of travel: an 1800s sailing ship that crashes off the coast of Norway, a 1900s Zeppelin probing an icy canyon in Antarctica, and a far-future spaceship bound for an alien artifact. He is charged with keeping his crew safe as they adventure across the galaxy in search of that mysterious artifact, yet each excursion goes horribly wrong.
Only Silas appears to recognize that these disastrous events keep repeating themselves. He must investigate why the same catastrophes recur, how they link the disparate expeditions, and whether he can prevent those cycles from happening again.
Doctor Silas Coade must stop a repeating cycle of catastrophic voyages spanning an 1800s Norwegian shipwreck, a 1900s Antarctic Zeppelin, and a future spaceship.

Reader guide
What to Know Before Reading Eversion
The description focuses on recurring disasters that touch distinct historical and speculative settings. Much of the setup centers on Silas Coade as a physician who alone perceives repetition across an 1800s shipwreck, a 1900s Antarctic Zeppelin, and a far-future space mission. The mystery links human crews, technological eras, and an alien artifact. This may appeal more to someone interested in puzzle-driven science fiction where external action and repeated events drive the narrative focus.
