Publisher's summary

Readers of Richard Scott’s time-travel novel Mission in Time wrote that it was too bad he didn’t write a sequel. Well here it is, The Second Mission. The Second Mission takes off three years after Gil and Tom ended up 240 years back in time instead of the two years into the future they had expected to find themselves. Christopher Carver and Matthew Blair expect to benefit from what was learned from the first time-travel mission out of the secret government test facility in the Nevada desert. They fully expect the mission to be far more accurate than the first. But time travel isn’t easy, so you never know what can happen. Imagine what it’s like for the time travelers (or chrononauts) when they find themselves with even more to contend with than their two predecessors. They find themselves in an era when food, technology, sanitation, recreation and vocabulary are far different from what they’re used to in the 21st century. Imagine, too, that despite your advantage over the people you meet in history, you find yourself learning as much from them as they learn from you. Whether you’re a time-travel aficionado or a lover of historic novels, you won’t be disappointed with The Second Mission.

Premise interesting and characters are good.

Good story but there were three fatal flaws for me. 1) design of the craft to rust away in water to prevent discovery in the past. But the intent was to go to the further. This didn’t make sense. 2) the assumption that The characters could not be killed in the past makes no sense. Sure they could. Their lives are a continuing line that loops back. I kept waiting for them to realize this or for one to die. Never happened. Silly mistake not part of the plot? 3) the actions of the traveler to reveal themselves over and over again. They go from must not to , sure I’m from the future multiple times with no good rationale. Plot device but poor. Needs work and I’ll not go further into the series.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
