Dr. Mara Lindgren led the team responsible for creating portal technology and the necessary developments needed to make the fuel cells needed to power the portals. Through groundbreaking discoveries in physics, a stable wormhole can be created between two paired portals. No exotic matter or black holes needed. A wooden cube passed through one portal emerges through the other. movement in perfect sync. Millimeter and supply chains for millimeter, her invention revolutionizes logistics and supply chains. Where distance once mattered, what matters now is where portals have been installed. Supplies and materials can be moved directly and instantaneously from one warehouse to another. Water can be redistributed on a global scale, whether for irrigation or to be used as drinking water. The need for pipe infrastructure is no longer needed. Even wastewater can be portalled directly to wastewater treatment plants, and after treatment, the water can be portalled to reservoirs or buffer facilities before releasing the water back to the environment or reused for irrigation, industrial use, or for further purification into drinkable water.
Large portal hubs are built to connect portal subnets with each other. a portal container with pharmaceutical products might be sent from a pharmaceutical manufacturing plant in one country to a portal hub in another country, where the contents are broken up and repackaged before being sent down the hierarchy of portal hubs until it reaches a hub with a portal that is connected to the final destination, much like how the modern-day postal service operates. The first Portalverse book, “Collapsing Distance,” tells the story of the beginning of the age of portal technology, following Dr. Mara Lindberg, team lead of the Portal Technology Development Team, and portal technician Adrian Keller, on the way to becoming a ubiquitous part of daily life. Everything seems to be working within tolerance until Keller discovers anomalies in an iron transport that cannot be explained.
In The sequel, “Portalverse #2 —Shadow Network”. Portal technology has been fully integrated into society, but as with all technology, there are always people who want to use it in a more creative way than most people do, which, In this case, is the way the Portal transit Authority expects the portals to be used.
At the edges of this system, operatives and outsiders navigate both code and concrete—rewiring routes, stealing access, and exposing the architecture no one is meant to see. As new regions come online and secrecy tightens, the true shape of the network begins to emerge: not just a tool for transport, but a contested map of power, access, and control.
First book “Collapsing distance is out using Amazon KDP: collapsing distance (portalverse #1). the second book “Shadow network is being worked on now.
