The first solo novel in two decades from multiple award-winning author Ian Watson, who worked for a year with Stanley Kubrick writing the screen story to the film A.I. Artificial Intelligence (subsequently filmed by Steven Spielberg), and wrote the very first novels set in the Warhammer 40K universe.
A new novel set in the same world as the author's acclaimed Chinese Time Machine stories.
When the Chinese Time Machine is hijacked from Oxford, Colonel Maggie Mo is perturbed. Will this mean an end to her trips into the past for 'scientific research', accompanied by her tame British Dons Rajit Sharma and David Mason?
Will it mean no more encounters with the likes of Marie Antoinette, William Makepiece Thackeray and the Scarlet Pimpernel?
