The Douglas Convolution

Description for THE DOUBLAS CONVOLUTION:  UNRAVELLING THE KNOTS OF TIME... by Edward Llewellyn:

TIME'S MASTER-TIME'S VICTIM

"We are the future.  In you heart you are on of us.  I want you for your Convolution.  The Master of Time.  I want you because we share race, language, nation, philosophy."

Ian Douglas of 1980, discoverer of the knot in Time, became Captain Gart of 2170 by accident.  Once in that role, he dared not change, for the world was fighting a desperate battle for survival.

The shattered remnants of the American East were hanging on grimly in the face of maniacal attacks of bestial men.  Across the seas a matriarchal order had grasped the fallen reins of science and provided the last hope for a civilized future.  Gart/Douglas, with his forgotten skills, could be their best tool.  But as a tool he held martial capacities and scientific abilities they could not suspect..

A gripping first novel of the century to come by a talented writer who comes to science fiction with a brilliant record of hard-core scientific credits.
