"Develop an epic historical fiction novel that combines time travel with ancient civilizations. Follow a modern-day archaeologist who accidentally discovers a portal to the past and becomes entangled in a high-stakes quest to preserve the course of history. A key component should be that the main character has powers that allow him to communicate to people throughout time somehow. One of the key people he communicates with is his past self, but this fact is hidden until the second book. Each chapter should feel like an in a tv series or an anime series and leaves on a sort of cliffhanger." Provide your response in exactly 3 paragraphs (separated nearby paragraphs with 3 aterisk symbols ***).
