  A NOMAD OF THE TIME STREAMS

  The Warlord of the Air

  It is 1973, and the stately airships of the Great Powers hold benign sway over a peaceful world. The balance of power is maintained by the British Empire—a most equitable and just Empire. Yet, moved by the politics of envy and perverse utopianism, not all of the Empire’s citizens support the marvellous equilibrium.

  Flung from the North East Frontier of 1902 into the future, Captain Oswald Bastable is forced to question his most cherished ideals, discovering to his horror that he has become a nomad of the time streams, eternally doomed to travel the wayward currents of a multiverse. Bastable falls in with the anarchists of this imperial society and sparks a course of events more devastating than he could ever have imagined.
