Saga Of Pliocene Exile
The Saga of Pliocene Exile (or the Saga of the Exiles) is a series of science / speculative fiction books by Julian May, first published in the early 1980s. It consists of four books: '' The Many-Colored Land'', ''The Golden Torc'', ''The Nonborn King'' and ''The Adversary''. At the start of the story, the Strait of Gibraltar is closed and the Mediterranean Sea is dry and empty. ''The Many Colored Land'' and ''The Golden Torc'' are set in Europe just before and during the rupture at Gibraltar. The rupture and the rapid filling of the Mediterranean, based on the geological event known as the Zanclean Flood, form a Wagnerian climax to The Golden Torc, in which aliens and time-traveling humans are caught up in this cataclysm. Main story The Saga of Pliocene Exile (known as the Saga of the Exiles in some markets) is a narrative of the adventures of a group of late 21st and early 22nd century outcasts who travel through a one-way time-gate to Earth's Pliocene epoch in the hope o ...

River Brede
The River Brede is an English river in East Sussex. It flows into the Rock Channel (tidal section of the River Tillingham) and then onto the River Rother at Rye, Sussex. It takes its name from the village of Brede, which lies between Hastings and Tenterden. Etymology The river takes its name from the village of Brede. The village is on the north bank of the river, and its name in Old English means ''breadth'', as it overlooks the wide river valley. Prior to the fifteenth century, the river was known as the ''Ee'' or ''Ree'', which simply means 'river' in Old English. A new channel was then constructed for much of its course downstream from its junction with Doleham Ditch, slightly to the north of the Ee, and running parallel with it, which was for many years known as ''the Channel'', but subsequently became the Brede. History The Brede flows through a wide valley in its lower reaches, surrounded by marshland which is at much the same level as the river. After passing close t ...
