Stanton's derring-do is diverting fun but the book's real strength happens to be both the calm-before-the-storm historical detail and the arresting vision of a dystopian future 'where love is treason ... and every person in the world is an ant, a drone, a robot'. In among the flagrant absurdities, the mind-bending talk of parallel universes and space-time vacuums, and Stanton's dramatic attempts to get back to the future, we find pertinent ethical questions that cover alternative-scenario ''what ifs'' and the ethics of collateral damage.|9781250077066|, Time and Time again is an exceptional thriller. Darkly comic, richly humane, and seriously entertaining. The final twist is spine chilling., Time and Time Again is, of all Elton's great and prophetic books, one of my favorites.

Synopsis
If you had one chance to change history...Where would you go? What would you do? Who would you kill? In Time and Time Again , international best-selling author Ben Elton takes readers on a thrilling journey through early 20th-Century Europe. It's the first of June 1914 and Hugh Stanton, ex-soldier and celebrated adventurer is quite literally the loneliest man on earth. No one he has ever known or loved has been born yet. Perhaps now they never will be. Stanton knows that a great and terrible war is coming. A collective suicidal madness that will destroy European civilization and bring misery to millions in the century to come. He knows this because, for him, that century is already history. Somehow he must change that history. He must prevent the war. A war that will begin with a single bullet. But can a single bullet truly corrupt an entire century? And, if so, could another single bullet save it?, Ex-soldier Hugh Stanton learns from a Cambridge academic that time travel is possible and decides to return to June 1914 to prevent the First World War in this page-turning sci-fi thriller.
