Across the Seas of Time
Stranded one million years ago in the glory days of Barsoom, when great oceans spanned the planet’s now-barren deserts, warrior-scientist Dat Voga has faced some serious obstacles since he and his companion arrived in the middle of a hurricane. But the most serious challenge is yet to be overcome. The longer Dat Voga remains in the past, the more likely he will cause irreparable damage to the future…a future in which he and his friends may cease to exist. But with the secret to returning to his own era locked in the head of a deranged madman who dwells in another age, his fate may be sealed before his life even begins.

About Chris L Adams (Author)
Chris spent years playing guitar in various bands and during that time was more of a voracious reader than a writer. After his last band collapsed, he turned from writing songs to writing stories, including his Barsoom duology, Dark Tides of Mars and Gauntlets of Mars.
In addition to writing, Chris also dabbles in painting; the cover art for his latest novel, A Savage from Atlantis, was created from one of his paintings. More information about Chris and his works can be found on his website, including links, a list of available stories, and other items of interest.
Chris resides in Southern West Virginia with his wife and daughter.
