Private Dumphee, the military's renowned cargo driver, is about to have a very bad few millennia on this VERY STRANGE TRIP.

He is a stranger to technology in action. He is use too running valuable commodities, such as moonshine in the rough country. Not a time machine during a volatile storm. The combination of bad weather and bad timing has gotten Dumphee into a very precarious position.

In this urban fantasy, Dumphee will have to face off against Mayan civilization, prehistoric threat, the countdown of a clock and Native Americans dead set on having him for a new headpiece. His defenses are some faulty futuristic military weapons and three squaw intent on being his wife (a woman's adventure with a twist!)

Dumphee doesn't know how he's going to make it, but with some promises to his stubborn companions and a few bright ideas he may just make it back home alive.

"A wild, high-tech ride through time. Read it to have a rollicking good time." --Brian Herbert, co-author Dune: House Attreides
