Island in the Sea of Time by S. M. Stirling

Description: It's spring on Nantucket and everything is perfectly normal, until a sudden storm blankets the entire island. When the weather clears, the island's inhabitants find that they are no longer in the late 20th century, but have been transported instead to the Bronze Age. Now they must learn to survive with suspicious, warlike peoples they can barely understand and deal with impending disaster, in the shape of a would-be conqueror from their own time.

'One of the best time-travel/alterate history stories I've ever read. An outstanding piece of work.' - Harry Turtledove

'A perfectly splendid story... endlessly fascinating. There have been many stories about castaways in time, but very few so solidly convincing.' - Poul Anderson

'Utterly engaging. This is unquestionably Steve Stirling's best work to date, a page-turner that is certain to win the author legions of new readers and fans.' - George R. R. Martin
