Synopsis

What would you do if you suddenly found yourself twenty-five years in the past? For the nine billion people living in the year 2042 it’s no longer a question…it’s a reality.When a seemingly simple experiment goes disastrously wrong, James Baston finds himself stranded in the past alongside the rest of mankind. Here the old are young once more, the dead live again, and civilization is in chaos.With the fate of humanity on the line, James must join a hastily assembled group of scientists, a reincarnated murder victim, and a genius trapped in her six-year-old body to reconcile the earlier mistakes of their future counterparts. The team struggles to prevent global extinction, and along the way they come face-to-face with their past losses, new loves, and a cold-blooded killer. As the team plummets toward a final confrontation, will they be able to undo time’s unraveling in order to save the human race?Revised edition: this edition of Toward Yesterday includes editorial revisions.

This is a good book. The beginning was excellent and the characters were fascinating. The beginning starts with James Baston kind of reflecting on his life. He is a bestselling author and he's writing his autobiography. You know there is more to the man than meets the eye and you soon find out. The......more

Goodreads review by Trish

So, some reviewers said they were lost from the beginning, some said they just hated it BUT I thoroughly enjoyed it. The players were great: Jim, Rebecca, Adrianna, Lorenz, Mabry, Mina, Simone and Lark. Byron Portia made the story more interesting since he was a serial killer and Father Edward Pike......more

Goodreads review by Pete

The trial of an experimental military communications device causes a time slip with disastrous consequences for millions of humans who are taken back twenty-five years in time.

Now, imagine you are suddenly thrown back 25 years, retaining all your knowledge and memories, but you’re 25 years younger. People that have died in the last 25 years are alive a......more

Imagine if everyone on earth time traveled without warning 25 years into their own past. Where would you find yourself? In a classroom or job long-forgotten? In a body more agile? Who in your life would not yet exist and who long-dead would suddenly be alive again? Would it be a blessing or a curse?......more


Quotes

“I powered through this book in a day. It’s a writing tour de force. If anyone reading is a writer and wants to know how to write perfect prose, buy this book. If anyone has a story in their head and wants to find a model to help them tell it, buy this book. If anyone’s looking for a good Stephen King/Dean Koontz/Michael Crichton book and has read everything by these men, buy this book. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.” —KillerKindle.comToward Yesterday is the best time travel story that I can remember coming across in any medium—book, movie, TV show, or video game.” —Sift Book Reviews (5 stars)“Good God, the artful penmanship this writer has! To make me, a non-fan of the genre, twist and turn and cheer (for the most odd of characters, no less).” —Butterfly-o-Meter Books (4 stars)“This is a hidden gem that would be a pure shame to miss. Toward Yesterday is an apocalyptic, science fiction thriller, that kept me sneaking away to read my Kindle for the entire Memorial Day weekend. Engrossing, thought-provoking, filled with lasting, vivid imagery…the story gripped me early, and didn’t let go.” —Steven Konkoly, author of The Jakarta Pandemic “In a world sinking into a morass of indifferent Fantasy, leavened only by the occasional Space Opera, it is a huge relief to read some ‘proper’ science fiction. You know, fiction based on science.” —Pat Whitaker, author of Bad BloodToward Yesterday is a wonderful throwback to the days when Science Fiction was actually based to some degree on Science.” —William Vitka, author of The Danger of Field Work
