Winner of the Nebula Award
Traveling back in time, from Oxford circa 2060 into the thick of World War II, was a routine excursion for three British historians eager to study firsthand the heroism and horrors of the Dunkirk evacuation and the London Blitz. But getting marooned in war-torn 1940 England has turned Michael Davies, Merope Ward, and Polly Churchill from temporal tourists into besieged citizens struggling to survive Hitlerâs devastating onslaught. And now thereâs more to worry about than just getting back home: The impossibility of altering past events has always been a core belief of time-travel theoryâbut it may be tragically wrong. When discrepancies in the historical record begin cropping up, it suggests that one or all of the future visitors have somehow changed the pastâand, ultimately, the outcome of the war. Meanwhile, in 2060 Oxford, the stranded historiansâ supervisor, Mr. Dunworthy, frantically confronts the seemingly impossible task of rescuing his studentsâthree missing needles in the haystack of history. The thrilling time-tripping adventure that began with Blackout now hurtles to its stunning resolution in All Clear.
Blackout and All Clear are the winners of the 2010 Nebula Award and 2011 Hugo Award for Best Novel
