The leader of a sinister political group hatches an insane plan to save humanity. Fighting to stop them could doom us all. When every action and decision may determine the fate of everyone who has ever lived, the right choice is not always clear. However, for one man, there is no choice at all...
Captain James Douglas sets off on a mundane transport and supply mission that quickly descends into disaster. Leading a fledgling society through a wild and hostile world was not part of his brief. Nor was the custodianship of all human life, history and endeavour. Worse still, an enemy hides among his passengers, while the knowledge of Tim Norris, a boy just days out of school, may be all that stands between mankind and extinction.
The crew and passengers of the USS New World are lost 100 million years ago in Mid-Cretaceous Gondwana. It is the time of the dinosaur... for now.
New World Series of Time Travel Historical and Prehistoric Fiction Adventure Books:
Fast-paced science fiction adventure. If you enjoy gripping time travel novels set in the past, with a mixture of action and suspense, plenty of humour and twists – and yes, dinosaurs – this series is for you.
What the readers are saying:
★★★★★ “WOW... scary, characters fully fleshed out, some are lovable, some are people you hope to never meet. At times funny, sad, or thrilling but not to be missed.” – H.M.
★★★★★ “Totally amazing story, totally hooked from the first page. Love that the main character speaks Scots and you can hear his voice throughout the book. I could imagine this happening and I loved the twists and turns. Would definitely recommend this well written, futuristic book.” – Allyson C.
★★★★★ “Character development is spot on! I love the premise, the characters, and the settings. I can't imagine there being anything NOT to like if you're a fan of science fiction. I will be following the series.” – Shinobi
★★★★★ “Great summer reading! Realism, you can practically smell the rainforest. Pretty rare in modern science fiction.” – Eva J.
★★★★★ “Not just dinosaurs... I was halfway through chapter one when I purchased book 2 and pre ordered book 3. It's that good. Everything is written so well and researched well, it has likeable characters and some not so likeable and a great story. Do yourself a favour and read this.” – D. Edmiston
