About the Book

Earth is dying. Its human population has declined catastrophically; people have become so isolated that few children are being born. The usual cause of death is self-termination.The Futurists, aided by the worldwide Computer network known as Central, take a desperate gamble. They reach into the past to extract candidates who might possess the qualities that the people of 25th Century Earth have lost; courage, determination, curiosity, stubbornness. But how to know if they've found the right ones?The candidates are transplanted to a parallel Earth during the late ice age; a world of giant mammals; bison, mammoths, dire wolves, sabertooth cats. Equipped with only a knife and hatchet, they must survive or perish on their own. Their children will in turn be transplanted to future Earth to revive its failing civilization.But first, they must survive this survival-of-the-fittest world...Fans of Robert A. Heinlein and S. M. Stirling will love this book's imagination and attention to detail!
About the Author: Jack Knapp grew up in Louisiana and joined the Army after graduating from high school. He served three tours in Germany and traveled throughout western Europe before retiring. His current circle of friends and acquaintances, many of them fellow members of Mensa, live on every continent except Antarctica. Jack graduated from the University of Texas at El Paso before beginning his second career, teaching science. Always an avid reader, he took naturally to writing. He's experimented with ESP (The Wizards Series) and woodcraft/survivalism. The deep woods of Louisiana were his playground, the setting for his Darwin's World Series. He's a knight of the Society for Creative Anachronism, so combat scenes involving swords, spears, and bows and arrows are reality based. Recent novels examine the challenges humanity will face when we begin to spread out into space. Beginning with a startup company building the first practical spacecraft (The Ship), to growing a business in space while overcoming Earth-based obstacles (NFI: New Frontiers, Inc), to humanity's first contact with a non-human species (NEO: Near Earth Objects and BEMs: Bug Eyed Monsters) the novels are largely based on current events. A fifth novel in the New Frontiers Series, MARS: the Martian Autonomous Republic of Sol, was published May 2017. Jack's boundless imagination is evident in all his books. How imaginative? You'll have to read his novels to find out!
