Castaways in Time

When is a house in the suburbs not a house in the suburbs?

"I enjoyed Castaways in Time. I particularly liked the ending. It was satisfying but it also raised more questions in my mind. My curiosity is piqued and I'll be starting the next book in this series very soon." Long and Short Reviews

When you look out your window and suddenly see your own house has been castaway in time and your neighbor's house is now a medieval castle in England!

And almost the next thing you know, you are being forced to fight an old-fashioned horse and lance battle.

Afterword, you discover, on the finger of fallen foe, a knight in full armor, a ring which says "Massachusetts Institute of Technology — 1998."

History buffs will delight in the author's voluminous and accurate knowledge of costumes and weaponry.

"The book bristles with authenticity, from the thick accents to the rough customs and the battle slang. And the author gets the details right." Rowena Cory, SF Commentary

If you love a strong story well told, this chair-riveting tale of modern people misplaced from their own time into a barbaric age will keep you up reading till the final page is turned.

"The old but always enjoyable premise of a motley group of moderns thrown back in time - in this case to 1639. The gimmick is, it's not the 1639 we know, but an alternate one. Bass Foster (a retired military man) and Krystal Kent a young doctor throw in their lot on the side of Arthur III, disputed ruler of England. From there, it's battles galore, since Arthur is being attacked from the east by Church-sponsored Crusaders, from the north by the Scots, from the west by the Irish, and from the south by rebel English. It's anything but mindless warfare, though. Adams knows his history (fifteenth-century Scotland) … and his own alternate history. For readers who wants non-stop action with a strong historical base, inventively altered." Baird Searles, Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine
