During a chilly spring evening on Nantucket, a violent storm erupts and a dome of crawling, colored fire blankets the island. When the howling winds subside and the night skies clear, the stars appear to have shifted. The mainland has become a wilderness of unbroken forest, where tools of bronze and stone litter the beaches, and primitive natives scatter in terror. With no warning or explanation, the island of Nantucket has been swept into the past. Its inhabitants are adrift in the year 1250 B.C. – without farms, factories, medicine or electricity – and there is only one question to be answered: *Can they survive?* Enlisting the help of an astronomer and a classical history professor, Nantucket’s chief of police and the captain of a Coast Guard training ship set out to prepare the townsfolk for the hard times ahead. In the process, they must deal with Bronze Age people from the British Isles to Central America, and with a power-hungry young Coast Guard officer who plans on exploiting their situation for his own purposes. *One of the best time-travel/alternate history stories I’ve ever read. An outstanding piece of work. -* *Harry Turtledove* **
