HTML: What good is time travel anyway? For Col. Ben Ming, head of Jalanesia's armed forces and husband of President Calla Ang, it's nothing but a headache. Time Traveler Jack Wragsland transported Calla to this space/time. So it wouldn't be fair to simply shoot him, when Jack's enemies attack him through Calla. But boy, is it a temptation. If Ben is going to save Calla he's going to have to save Jack as well, even if it makes him crazy. .Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

The River Twice
Meet Myself There
The Fog of Time
A trilogy I got from the LibraryThing Early Reviewers programme in exchange for an honest review.
The River Twice
Jack Wragland is a Victorian clergyman with an interest in inventions. Assisted by his sister Fanny, he invents a time machine and ends up in late 20th century Jalanasia. Here he meets Calla Ang, the heiress of the military ruling family. However, he manages to disrupt the timelines and he and Calla move to an alternate Jalanesia before finally ending up in a third timeline.
When I started reading this, it seemed awfully familiar and it’s a brand-new book. It wasn’t until I was halfway through the second book I realised why it was familiar: the various Jalanesian factions were Junta factions - the Army, the Church, the Peasants, and so on.
Meet Myself There
Jack is hunting his sister Fanny across the timelines after she attempts to assassinate Jack and misses. Instead, she gets Lilias Ang - Calla Ang’s daughter. Jack has settled in California and works for the Action Corporation - headed by Steve Jobs - and is now married. Jack encounters various versions of Fanny and her husband across the timelines before finding his sister on her deathbed in an abandoned missile bunker in North Korea.
The Fog of Time
Jack returns to Jalanesia with a baby - given to him by another version of himself. The mother is another version of Calla Ang. Later, his cousin turns up; and complications ensue when Cousin Gary gets himself in trouble. Jack and Gary travel back in time to Imperial Rome and encounter Rufus - the version of Jack that passed on the baby. Rufus fathered the baby on a kidnapped version of Calla Ang. He turns out to be completely amoral and has been ‘pruning’ timelines. After his version of Calla murders Jack, Calla and her husband Ben travel back to stop him.
An interesting mixture of time travel and theology. The trilogy is deeply plotted and it can be difficult to keep the various timelines and versions of the main characters straight.
Recommended.
