John Lux was an electronic scientist, a level-headed industrialist, an ordinary twentieth century man – at least he thought he was an ordinary man…<P>
…until he discovered he could teleport himself…<P>
…until he discovered that forces 200,000 years beyond his time were trying to destroy him…until he discovered that civilization of the future was being pampered into extinction in a kindergarten world and he was the only man in all eternity who could save it…<P>
But until John Lux discovered how to use his dormant powers, he was a helpless pawn in a time war – and both he and the planet were doomed!
