Flash Forward

by Robert J. Sawyer

Flash Forward Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A scientific experiment begins, and as the button is pressed, the unexpected occurs: everyone in the world goes to sleep for a few moments while everyone's consciousness is catapulted more than twenty years into the future. At the end of those moments, when the world reawakens, all human life is transformed by foreknowledge.

Review:

"This first-rate, philosophical journey, a terrific example of idea-driven SF, should have wide appeal." Publishers Weekly

Review:

"Sawyer...brings a fresh and startling approach to the familiar theme of time travel in a tale that explores the repercussions of knowing the future." Library Journal

Review:

"The reliable Sawyer turns in another solid performance." Booklist

Review:

"Sawyer is a writer of boundless confidence and bold scientific extrapolation." The New York Times Book Review
