About the author
Ian Cattell
3 books11 followersIan Cattell is a software developer who wanted a change from staring blankly at a computer screen all day. So he decided to write a book.
Yeah, I know…
Over the next six months he learned that there are many advantages to writing a book compared to writing software, the main one being that he doesn't have to re-write it whenever Microsoft decides it's “time”.
He enjoys astronomy, baking organic bread, and trying to figure out why some people insist on using Macs - but when his neighbour is out he likes to play his drums. He's got a Roland TD-11KV with the extra CY-12 Crash cymbal and double kick pedals, he runs it through a 150W Mosfet PA amp via a BOSS...
Oh… your eyes have glazed over... never mind.

Fantastically funny follow up to the long lost future, from the plot to the acronyms, the characters names and the footnotes. It was worth the wait.

Witty and engaging
A very satisfying second installment to Randall's time twisting adventure. I found it difficult to put down. Recommend reading it on a Saturday.

Funny, amusing and yet plenty of serious tones filled with plenty of tech talk.
Randal James, is he the answer to everything that is happening in the universe? Or should I say universe's? Time travel is at the soul of this book. But is it really a good thing? Maybe it causes chaos in untold amounts across all timelines. In all universe's? More importantly why does Randal and his companions need to time travel anyway? It solely can't be due to the Star Trek crisis, surely?
The second in the series of The Long Lost Future books. I have to say some of the names had me LOL literally. Top notch reading and top notch writing 😊.
