{"product_id":"book-prqh","title":"You Were Right, Joe","description":"\u003cp\u003eA man leaps forward through centuries expecting confusion, danger, and the risk of arriving as a stranger. Instead he lands in a world that already has a place waiting for him-complete with a name, a past, and a body stronger than anything he ever imagined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe future seems almost idyllic. The streets are calm, the laws are simple, and the people live with an ease that would be unthinkable in his own time. Yet odd things begin appearing without warning. Savages with stone clubs burst into the streets. A saber-toothed predator charges through a peaceful park. Visitors from other centuries blink into existence, bewildered and terrified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt first these incidents look like isolated accidents. But the pattern becomes impossible to ignore. Something is dragging pieces of history into the same moment, and the quiet city of the future is turning into a crossroads for every age that ever existed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll the while, the traveler continues speaking to the one person who made the journey possible-Joe, the man who predicted almost every detail of what would happen. But even Joe never expected the one consequence that now threatens both the future and the past.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd if the link between them is not broken soon, the damage could reach backward through time itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJ.
