Let's keep this guy writing! Please, Mr. G y R, write a sequel! We have to find out what happens! I was just amazed at the indomitable approach of the hero, Jake, a la Indiana Jones and James Bond, somehow logically working his way through all manner of dreadful menace and emerging relatively unscathed. As usual, his super-devices from the far future are stripped from him and his comrades and he has to rely mostly on wits, friendship, teamwork, and luck to best his merciless, arrogant foes. Along the way he learns heart-rending lessons about life and love. The images of the Bronze Age are crisp, clear and cinematic, like you're really there! The slow but sure revealing of details both expository and background is part of the winning charm of this author's writing. The one-clause-at-a-time style is Saturday-afternoon updated Burroughs at its best.
