A Classic Time Travel Sci-Fi Novel of Prehistoric Earth, Time Machines, and Wold Newton Lore

In the year 2070, a team of four scientists led by mysterious researcher John Gribardsun uses a newly invented chrononaut star-drive to travel back in time to 12,000 B.C., landing in Upper Paleolithic Europe during the last Ice Age.

Tasked with observing early human hunter-gatherers and megafauna, the expedition faces brutal wilderness hazards and rival tribal factions. As the mission unfolds, Gribardsun's true identity as an immortal figure who chose to remain in the past reveals connections to Philip José Farmer's iconic Wold Newton universe.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Grand Master Philip José Farmer delivers a fast-paced time-travel adventure rich in prehistoric archaeology, survival lore, and clever speculative connections. Essential reading for fans of Jules Verne, H.G. Wells, and Edgar Rice Burroughs.
