Short Synopsis
A provocative and endlessly inventive spin on the classic adventure story, Island in the Sea of Time takes you on a journey of wonder, discovery, and imagination.

Full Synopsis
During a perfect spring evening on Nantucket, a violent storm erupts and a dome of crawling, colored fire blankets the island. When the howling winds subside and the night skies clear, the stars appear to have shifted. The mainland has become a wilderness of unbroken forest, where tools of bronze and stone litter the beaches, and primitive natives scatter in terror.

A startling phenomenon has occurred: The island of Nantucket has been swept into the long-ago past. With its inhabitants adrift in the year 1250 BC, there is only one question to be answered: Can they survive?

"Bravo! A masterpiece! The definitive novel about castaways in time." ---Robert J. Sawyer, Nebula Award-winning author of The Terminal Experiment

"One of the best time-travel/alternate history stories I've ever read. An outstanding piece of work." ---Harry Turtledove, award-winning author of Beyond the Gap
