Historelic is the first of several journals of Richard’s many trips into our future. We, here in our time, think of ourselves as the ultimate in human development and technical expertise. Richard soon learns differently. He is constantly surprised and amazed at how human society has both willingly and unwillingly changed to enable survival in the frigid new world of the 48th century.

Times have changed. A new ice age has turned most of planet Earth into a huge deep freeze. Bigger, stronger and more mentally developed humans have moved underground into a highly mechanized socialistic society Richard, at first, finds it difficult to cope with, but reluctantly and gradually begins to see as somewhat beneficial.

Humans of the 48th century freely roam the universe by way of a transmission system capable of moving people and material from one far-off planet to another as easily and quickly as we of our time make a cell phone calls.

But not all was rosy in the paradise of 48th century. Someone, a party or parties unknown wanted Richard Remington dead and seemed quite willing to do whatever it took to make it so.

Review by: Kara Knorr on Aug. 15, 2011 :
Great read!! I was immediately drawn into the mystery of the ‘ghostly intruder’. And then from there, into the author’s vision of our 48th century world. I wasn’t sure I liked the ‘universal language’ spoken by the future characters of the book – it was a little hard to read at first. The author’s dry humor drew me in, though, along with the consistency of the story line and pretty soon it was my universal language too! Overall, I highly recommend this book. However, I would like to know one thing… When’s the next book coming out? ~ Kara Knorr

I purchased this on my Nook - the cover caught my eye when I was searching for books under $5. I usually read mysteries, but found this scifi a good read. Waiting for the next book to come out to continue the adventure.
