Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 384 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | A curious time shift takes Bon and his planet, Shonak, on an expedition into the nature of Time itself. It also sets the stage for open interaction between Shonak and Earth, which until the "shift" was the Earth of 1000 BCE. Suddenly, inexplicably, Earth was thrust forward in time by 3210 years. Now a modern, technical world, Shonak can finally relate to the people and can have an open relationship with them. While the time shift on Earth was indisputable, nothing of the sort happened on Shonak. Strangely enough though, Shonak's surveillance of Earth captured every moment of those "new" 3210 years, while no one on Shonak had any memory of these new years.
