Undocumented aliens from outer space have breached a sky wall built by King Donald Trump in 2017. The current queen in 2963 sends time traveler Tamar Weaver to prevent the assassination of King Abraham Lincoln. thereby preventing the aliens from gobbling up the Union of Royal American States founded by Benedict Arnold

As Britain tries to regain its 13 colonies, time travel with us through the American monarchy founded by Benedict Arnold.

The United Kingdom and undocumented aliens in the Union of Royal American States want to regain dominance over the 13 lost American colonies; colonies that King Benedict Arnold, with the assistance of his British masters, transformed into the Union of Royal American States after defeating George Washington at Yorktown.

If London completes its task, originally started by Queen Victoria when she planted sleeper agents throughout the URAS, loyal subjects may suffer a fate worse than the Zika or Ebola viruses.

In 2063, the ruler of the URAS was Queen Alyssa, whose family descended from King Benedict's distant younger cousin, King Abraham Lincoln. Her family's modus operandi for ascension to the throne was not waiting for the ruler to die naturally, but by murdering the incumbent king or queen. In this case, Alyssa killed her father.

The paranoid queen suffers nightmares; hallucinations of undocumented aliens usurping her throne and enslaving her subjects. In "Conceived in Liberty," a comedic, sci-fi, time-traveling romp through history by award-winning journalist Don Canaan, the queen asks Tamar Weaver, founder of AT&T (A Taste of Time), to travel into the past and repair the fabric of time so that Alyssa's reign could continue unhindered.

Changing fate isn't simple for Tamar. She encounters historical figures in non-whitewashed situations never before been documented in URAS history. You will finally learn the unvarnished truth about, among others, the Lincoln and Washington families.


     



Excerpt

Chapter 1


On a gorgeous June day in 2044, Chauvin High School junior Tamar Weaver, wearing a trendy T-shirt whose literary purpose was solely to annoy adults, entered the building in New York City, the capital of the Union of Royal American States (URAS).

She only remained in school for one period and then escaped; her grandparents had always called these escapes "playing hooky." On the term's final day, after a bus trip downtown, Tamar joined a group of time travelers from AT&T, Advanced Time and Tours, whose next stop was the Mercy Crystal Palace in the year 1863.

As Tamar and the travelers arrived in the massive glass auditorium located in an area surrounded by rundown shops and unpaved streets, she saw the king, Abraham Lincoln, attentively listening to a former slave, Sojourner Truth, tell her story.

The bespectacled monarch was seated in a box overlooking the stage. Suddenly his eyeglasses reflected a slight movement of the curtain behind him and instinctively moved his chair aside.
Seated in the ballroom below, a few rows in front of the other time travelers, Tamar did not see the man that had moved the curtain. Suddenly, two gunshots reverberated through the room.

The audience panicked and the room started to empty. Tamar, a budding journalist, noted in a small journal that she always carried with her, some key words describing what had happened.
She later appended those notes to read that "everything written in this journal is the truth. If, in the future, I experience other adventures, I hope that I can fix the fabric of time. Hopefully, I will be able to correct both my history and yours."

Eventually, Tamar's journal would be placed into a hermetically-sealed container, hidden in a location where it would be discovered by future archaeologists.
