A World Out of Time
What's it about
What if you woke up from a 200-year nap to find humanity had abandoned Earth? For one man, this isn't a hypothetical. After being frozen in 1970, he's resurrected into a future where he's a pawn in a desperate plan to reclaim the solar system. You'll join his high-speed journey across a transformed galaxy, where time itself is a weapon and the fate of humanity rests on a single, stolen ship. Discover how one person's mind, transplanted into an immortal body, can fight back against cosmic tyrants and an indifferent universe.
