Roger L. Johnson: The Last Time Machine, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A working time machine, a fortune in wartime gold, and a soldier caught between two centuries: Roger Johnson's high-velocity adventure races from a Civil War battlefield to a driverless future.

Union artillery captain Daniel Hilton is guarding a fortune in wartime gold when a machine out of nowhere tears him from a Civil War battlefield and hurls him a century and a half into the future. There he becomes the captive of Jessica Rothman-a ruthless young tech heiress whose time machine can reach back through history to loot the Confederate treasury itself. Marooned in a dystopia of driverless cars, drones, martial law, and hollow faith, the God-fearing captain must decide whom he can trust, what history is worth changing, and whether some things-love, conscience, free will-hold firm across the centuries. Blending Civil War history, near-future speculation, and a quiet Christian heart, The Last Time Machine is a fast, inventive, and surprisingly moving adventure across time.
