Paperback. "Time's Orphan" by Edric Thorn unfolds in a universe where time travel is a part of daily life, introducing readers to Kai, a teenager whose life takes a dramatic turn when he accidentally stumbles into the future. In "Time's Orphan, " the novel follows the journey of Kai, a teenager whose life changes drastically when he inadvertently travels from his own time into the future. His time jump forward thrusts him into a wondrous and bewildering world filled with advanced technology and societal norms far removed from anything he has known. Kai's arrival in the future is marked by confusion and isolation as he struggles to understand and fit into this new era. His encounters with the people of the future reveal him to be like an "anomaly," a relic of the past unexpectedly thrown into their midst, the future time. The turning point in Kai's journey comes when he meets Dr. Mira, a seasoned time traveler who recognizes his disorientation and offers guidance. Dr. Mira becomes a mentor to Kai, teaching him about the intricacies of time travel, the societal norms of the future, and the ethical implications of their actions on the timeline. Under her tutelage, Kai begins to adapt to his new surroundings, learning to navigate the challenges and marvels of the future world. As Kai grows and learns, he grapples with the consequences of time travel, including the impact of his presence in a time that is not his own. His journey is not just a physical adventure but also an internal exploration of identity, belonging, and the connections that transcend time. The novel delves into themes of responsibility, the ethics of altering history, and the quest for knowledge and personal growth. Kai's experiences force him to confront the reality of his situation: he is a temporal orphan, caught between two worlds, struggling to find where he belongs in one of the Worlds: in the past or the future. The novel concludes with Kai deciding whether to remain in the future, with its possibilities and challenges or to find a way back to his original time, armed with the lessons and insights he has gained through his extraordinary journey. However, his return to the past will change the future, so his time travel has changed it. What should Kai do, being the Time's Orphan? This item is printed on demand.
