Following Gilgamesh

A corrupt professor cons two young archaeologists. They think they are going to fly through space to a distant planet. In fact, Nanshe and Bandaka will travel forward through time.

Their desperate government sends them 700 years into the future to discover why their society faces extinction. As they go searching for ancient artefacts and texts, they do not realise that the peaceful world they are exploring has replaced their own dysfunctional technocracy. A wise guide befriends them and tries to protect them from hidden mortal dangers.

Following the oldest road trip known to humanity, they learn the solutions to the problems of their own era. As this book is a novella, about half the length of a regular novel, I have priced it pretty low at £1 for the Kindle edition. The paperback costs £7.39 though that will fluctuate a little as it’s tied to the American dollar.

This was such fun to write, so I hope it’s as much fun to read. I think it’s one of those books that will ‘stay with you’.
