To Turn the Tide [Paperback]

New time travel military adventure fromNew York Timesbest-selling novelist S.M. Stirling

IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT

Many could see it coming. But one man could do something about it. Oh, he couldn’t avert the nuclear holocaust, but a scientist in Austria, ruthlessly using billions of research dollars for his own purposes, set up an out for himself: he created a time machine, and filled a warehouse with low-tech survival gear. Too bad he didn’t get to use it himself.

Instead, a team of American grad students, led by their professor, is sent back to the late Roman Empire. Even though they are experts in this time and place, they are about to realize that books and actual experience are very different things.

If they can survive, they hope to remake the world into a better place. But that’s a big “if.”S.M. Stirlingis theNew York Timesbest-sellingauthor of the Draka series, the Lords of Creation series, and the Emberverse series, among others. With David Drake, he is the author of several novels in the General series. He cowrote novels in the Falkenberg’s Legion series with Jerry Pournelle. A former lawyer and amateur historian, he lives in New Mexico, where he haunts a certain café and continues his latest series, Make the Darkness Light.Praise for To Turn the Tide:
