Produktbeschreibung
A global catastrophe has returned earth to the Iron Age and killed six billion people. Even the billionaires were tricked and eliminated. An Oxford intelligentsia have taken over the planet. Can such smart people rebuild the world in a better way? With help from the galactic federation, perhaps there is hope. But first, earth's new elite must retrieve from the past some things that were destroyed long ago - ways of thinking and living that can avoid a fatal reawakening of the delusions bequeathed to us by Rome. Jake Janaway - young, modest, handsome, and scared - is selected for a dangerous mission into the pre-Roman past. Jake has no idea why he was chosen. Jake has a lot to learn. But perhaps no one in the galaxy ever had better teachers, or was more loved.
Autorenporträt
David Dalton has worked for the San Francisco Examiner and the San Francisco Chronicle. He has now retreated to a small farm in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, where he also is involved in environmental activism and local politics. Dalton's forthcoming memoir will involve 40 years of gay history, for which he had a front-row seat and lived a life that brought him into intimate contact with some of the most important gay writers and thinkers of the last 40 years.
