'Clive Ousley has created a roller coaster ride combining apocalyptic and fantasy fiction into a fast moving adventure for any age.'No one outside Martyn’s family knew about the time travel project in the barn in case the Russian secret police or school commissar came to investigate. Then Martyn discovered he was the only one able to go back in time to assassinate Vitaly Alecsokov – the president of Russia. Most importantly, he had to do this when Alecsokov was a junior minister in the years before he authorised the 2010 invasion of Britain.
When Martyn’s chance comes to free Europe, he discovers his time machine has a discrepancy that sends him into a similar alternate universe – and then into another. A fresh path leads from Mankind’s only interstellar colony through purple cone trees to a mysterious clearing. Here, a clump of five dandelion trees surround an invisible vortex called Execution Grove. Into these trees stride bewitched colonists including Mattie’s daughter Skye – they disintegrate, and no one knows where they have gone or whether they are dead or alive.
A triumvirate of androids in an orbiting spacecraft have deduced the Grove’s secret and plan to snatch the next person to enter it. Meanwhile, Mattie and her son Rello plan to risk death in the Grove to rescue Skye. But where does the Grove cast them if it goes anywhere other than sending them to their doom? To resolve the mystery, Mattie is forced to participate in a unique experiment that bridges space and time. Her son Rello must also face a series of incomprehensible tasks set him by an alien race before they can even begin to search for Skye. Somewhere in this whirlpool of confusion Mattie and Rello know Skye is trapped and needs their help.

Artificial trees decorate this artificial maze and life is further enhanced by the remote voice that proclaims their survival relies on them working hard.
But Mattie Prince had a dream she called Paradise – it was of a place where the ceiling lights condensed into one warm, bright globe that refreshed you and made your skin glow. Water in Paradise ran freely in torrents that cascaded down craggy metal and even fell from above. But contrasting that vision was another. This dream was a nightmare all of the citizens had known since childhood – it was a place called Out Side. In that place were dust storms, acid rivers, polluted air and no water. To be in Out Side meant your flesh could be corrupted by radioactive dust and your mind would decay with brain-melt illness. Mattie wanted to find out which vision was real. But first she needed to find out how to get there . . . Click here to buy |
