The Exchange
Humanity in the early Twenty-First Century is changing. Progressing. Evolving. Transcending.
With every passing year, the distinctions which separate mankind from machines are becoming increasingly blurred as technology is quickly helping humanity free itself from the age-old constraints of biology, frailty, and mortality.
We are becoming healthier, stronger, and smarter at an exponential pace. We can fight wars from half-a-world away, we can visit any location on earth without moving, and we can not only repair our bodies, but enhance them. Soon, even immortality will no longer be a fantasy of religion or myth, but within our very grasp. We will transcend biology.
What lies ahead for mankind is breathtaking -- and even terrifying. And as we peer into that future, we are faced with the startling question:
What does it mean to be human?
After experiencing a horrible personal loss, Daniel Marks, a former time-traveler, embarks on a journey which will cause him to not only question the entire purpose of his existence, but that very existence itself.

About the author
Chris Hambleton
46 books43 followersI wrote my first book called "Project Exodus" in the fall of 1992 when I started college, but soon became busy with school, career, family, and kids. I didn't start writing again until about 2007 and ended up publishing my first novel ("The Time of Jacob's Trouble") in 2008 which was later expanded into a well-loved trilogy. And the rest (as they say) is history!
Aside from writing software and books in my spare time, my other interests include spending time with my wife and our dogs, hiking, relaxing on the beach, and reading great literature. I've toured Israel several times and have also volunteered on an IDF medical base. I also enjoy traveling, listening to classical music, studying archaeology, history, and politics, and literally devouring audiobooks.

Not as good ad Endeavour in Time

It was a great book, but it should have been at least two books. Just at the climatic point of the book we are thrust into the Epilogue, thus ending the book. It was like the author got tired of the story and tried a quick ending.
