There' s a secret in the basement of the engineering building. Three travelers, claiming to be from a utopia six thousand years hence, are helping Dr. Gustafson and his graduate staff invent a time transport. Their stated goal: to stop war and secure a peaceful future. Overloaded and overtaxed, the transport experiments start to go wrong. Dreadfully wrong. What the professors don' t know is that the Travelers have their own plans for the machine. And their own secrets... . The future isn' t peaceful. The past is not the past. And the machine in the engineering building has everything to do with an unimaginable war. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

The engineering professor and his students had been told that the device they were helping build was a time travel device that would allow the to travel back to the Mezoic but as problems callibrating the device multiply the group and their friends and colleagues on the university staff learn that the travellers aren't from Earth at all but are a group of aliens intent on using Earth as a staging post in an attack on their even more alien enemies.
Almost thirty years on from its copyright date it's strange how dated the contemporary actions feel - not just the technology but some of the social interactions between the sexes (rather interestngly reversed in the humanoid aliens). What action there is is as intense, violent and almost random as you would expect from David Drake the Vietnam veteran. ( )
