Description

«Amo qualsiasi cosa scriva Michael Crichton.» Stephen King Nel deserto dell’Arizona un uomo vaga senza meta, pronunciando parole prive di senso. Dopo ventiquattr’ore è morto e il suo corpo viene cremato dalle uniche persone che sembrano conoscerlo. All’altro capo del mondo una squadra di archeologi è al lavoro sulle rovine di un villaggio medievale della Dordogna, dove scopre una stanza rimasta sigillata per oltre seicento anni. Ma nel quartier generale della società finanziatrice del progetto gli studiosi faranno una scoperta ancora più sorprendente: il capo della misteriosa multinazionale ha inventato una vera macchina del tempo, che nello spericolato tentativo di ritrovare il professor Johnson, il capo della spedizione precipitato in un tunnel spaziotemporale, li proietterà in uno dei periodi più avventurosi e violenti della storia. Da quel momento i nostri eroi dovranno riuscire a sopravvivere nel bel mezzo della guerra dei Cent’Anni – tra soldataglia e affascinanti castellane, assedi e cruente battaglie – per cercare di tornare sani e salvi nel XXI secolo.
