The Douglass Convolution By Edward Llewellyn, January 13, 2011
This review is from: Douglas Convolution (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a great piece of Science Fiction. Ian Douglas, a Vietnam Vet and mathematician, is suddenly dropped 200 years forward in time to a world just recovering from an apocalyptic drop in population. As civilization struggles to regain it's footing on the North American East Coast, Douglas is forced to impersonate a solder he killed in self defense. Douglas bides his time looking for an escape before his deception is found out. Meanwhile an army of remarkable brutality is emerging from the wilds of the Appalachia's and only a trained guerrilla jungle fighter can hold them at bay. Slowly Douglas comes to realize he is not the only time traveler on the scene. All the while Llewellyn slowly builds sexual tension between Douglas and his jailer/pilot/comrade. If you read through all of Llewellyn's work you will find he clearly learned much of his writing from Heinlein. Llewellyn maintains the Universe he creates here through his five other Science Fiction.
