In this final book in the Timeshift Trilogy, a brilliant maverick scientist discovers a way to insert a person from the future into the still-living past. Keith Maravich, life-long friend and brother to Carson Gilmore, travels back to May 1999 to alter the course of human history, which placed mankind on its path to extinction. He is to save Alicia York, a scientist at the University of Chicago, whose murder ends her promising research into the creation of new forms of bio-chemical life; research, which, if completed, would have eliminated the threat from the virulent, omnipresent ash plaguing the 25th century. As the critical day approaches, Gil and Keith meet at the designated time and battle one another five hundred years before they were born, while the fate of humanity hangs in the balance.

This review is from: What Price Paradise? (The Timeshift Trilogy, Part 3) (Paperback)
We here in scifi-stories.com just finished reading the last book of this TIMESHIFT trilogy 'What Price Paradise?' and it is very interesting, well thought out and well written. The one that will definitely intrigue you until the end. We can't recommended it enough. For this last book Phillip Ellis Jackson teamed up with author John William Galt, an award winning movie talent, screenwriter, and actor.In the third book of the Timeshift trilogy we find Elias Putnam discovering a way to send a jumper (what time travelers are called) back in time. Keith Maravich is sent back to save Alicia York and her mother from being murdered, believing that this could fix the calamities mankind has caused. Carson Gilmore, Keith Maravich's friend, is sent back on a mission to stop Maravich from changing the past. In the middle of the desperation that mankind finds itself in the future, Maravich believes he will do good by affecting the past, bringing the scenario of changing events from the past that could cause irreversible consequences and an uncertain future. This book is never boring and all connects together very well. When finishing this books we now wonder, with what new ideas will Phillip Jackson come up with next? We have become his fans as a 'story teller' just as we know many of those that will read these books.
