"The traveler" de David Lynn Golemon

267,000 BCE. The continent was its own world, untouched by the planet-wide catastrophe that ended the reign of the dinosaurs over sixty-five million years before. A traveler arrives in the jungles of this ancient world who will fight to survive carnivorous creatures in a land never meant for human kind.

In another time and in a land far distant, men and women struggle to recover from the loss of so many of their own in a battle. Inside of this Group, Colonel Jack Collins has summoned the best of the best from the most secretive organization in the United States government, The Event Group, to help him in his quest. The new mission is to recover one of their own: to bring home a lost soldier from a world that existed in the distant past.

To accomplish the impossible, Department 5656, the Event Group, will have to travel to a place and time far removed from their own world - almost 300,000 years in the past. The trail to find the technology to accomplish time travel will be ripe with treachery and murder as the Group fights to bring home their friend, Captain Carl Everett, a man that was lost in a battle to save the world. This will be a fight that if lost, will change the very history of the planet and thus our present.



Libro 11 de la saga Evento, este libro se centra en el rescate del comandante Everett perdido en un agujero temporal creado en la guerra contra los grises, en un momento en el que el grupo se está intentando recuperar de las graves pérdidas sufridas durante el conflicto.

Y para ello Golemon nos lleva a un mundo prehistórico, perdido en la Antártida, en la que extraños animales campan a sus anchas y donde el hombre no está en la cima de la pirámide.

El autor nos lleva por un mar de intrigas y misterios, acción y aventuras, mezclando inventos nazis, con mafia rusa y un toque de parque jurásico.

Un libro para no aburrirse, aunque reconozco que me he perdido en la parte en la que explica la "ciencia" detrás de los viajes en el tiempo. No lo entiendo en español, como para entenderlo en inglés.
