A stirring novel steeped in action, superbly and colourfully packaged to take the reader on an excitingly imaginative journey back through the centuries to the times of the Great Wars and into a possible future war. Who is the man lying wounded in a hospital bed in London towards the end of World War II? A man who isn't sure whether his name is Quintius, or Elric, or De Servery, or...or.................. Peter Jessop has created a superb novel centred around one man's loss of memory, and in which his battle scenes are so vividly described the reader can almost smell the stench of death and bloodshed. John Fawcett - the Soldier, the Warrior - is a man haunted by visions in his head and unsure of his real identity. As countless scenes infiltrate his psyche he fears for his sanity: is he merely conjuring up fantasies from things he has heard about in the past, or are the names and visions flashing in and out of his mind like a cinema reel a regression into past lives where he was at the mercy of the Gods, or is he simply suffering from delusion caused by the horrors he has so recently witnessed. Although the basic plot involves a modern theme of saving the world from a future war, this book is uniquely different. Splendidly written it grips the reader, both male and female, and enthrals from the very first page to the surprising and most satisfactory ending.
