Follow the Ebb and Flow of the Tides of Love - and Lust - Over an Epic Journey of Two Thousand Years.
Billy and Harry are human guinea pigs, sent into futurity by Professor Slagoscar's time projector. They must survive threats of injury, death - and considerable embarrassment - as they are plunged into a series of futures, each more bizarre than the last.
2050 A.D. - Sex, lies and surveillance...
2250 A.D. - Men dress up while women wear the pants...
2500 A.D. - Billy must wear feminine garments, just to prove that he's a man...
2700 A.D. - A love triangle between a man, a woman and a talking ape...
3000 A.D. - When intelligent animals hunt and humans are on the menu!
3500 A.D. - Harry stumbles into a 'domestic arrangement' between a woman and a waistcoat-wearing tomcat...
3700 A.D. - Androids available for every need and purpose -- even the most intimate...
3710 A.D. - Can love survive the death rays of rebel robots?
4000 A.D. - Cave women hunt for men...but do they want sex or food?
Will humanity survive the destructive politics of gender; repeated economic collapses; genetic engineering gone wrong; the android revolt; wars waged with weapons of mass destruction; and civilisations' cycles of creation and destruction?
And in all that vastness of two thousand years of deep time, will Billy ever fulfil his quest - to find a beautiful woman to love, and a surviving bottle of scotch?
