London, 1972: A decade of peace, love, and the mundane. London, 2972: A millennium of war, aliens, and the impossible.
Bill is just an ordinary young man in his early twenties until the world as he knows it vanishes. In a heartbeat, he is catapulted from the familiar streets of 1970s London to a terrifying future one thousand years away.
But the future isn't the utopia humanity dreamed of. It is a battlefield.
Bill discovers that Earth is locked in a desperate, distant war against the Xon—a conflict fueled by a "Ghost Brigade" of soldiers. In a chilling twist of fate, he learns that the army is comprised of men and women declared missing or killed in action from every war in human history. Among them is his own cousin, fighting a war that shouldn't exist.
Seconded into the fight, Bill is forced to face:
- A Brutal Conscription: Fighting alongside those lost to history on planets far from home.
- The Enigmatic Xon: The very architects of time travel who hold the keys to Bill's past and his future.
- A Forbidden Connection: Kalera, an elegant Xon female, who offers Bill a glimpse of a life he never imagined possible.
As the effects of constant time travel begin to fracture his mind and his morals, Bill is torn between two worlds. Does he fight to return to the simple life of 1972, or does he embrace a destiny in 2972 with the woman he loves?
Time Is... Time Was... is a gripping military sci-fi adventure that explores the cost of war, the fluidity of time, and the enduring power of the human heart. Perfect for fans of The Forever War, Interstellar, and classic British sci-fi.
