New time travel military adventure from New York Times bestselling novelist S. M. Stirling

IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT

Everyone could see it coming. But one man could do something about it. Oh, he couldn't avert the nuclear holocaust, but a scientist in Austria, ruthlessly using billions of research dollars for his own purposes, set himself up and out: he created a time machine, and filled a warehouse with low-tech survival gear. Too bad he didn't get to use it himself.

Instead, a team of American grad students, led by their professor, is sent back to the late Roman Empire. Even though they are experts in this time and place, they are about to realize that books and actual experience are very different things.

If they can survive, they hope to remake the world into a better place. But that's a big "if."

story is pretty good. Lots of exposition for world building, but the characters seem a bit flat. The narrator isn't to my taste. No feeling and the change of chapters jars me out of the story as there is usually a time jump, but the narrator reads the first sentence like it's hard on the back of the last sentence as if it's a comma and not a full stop, let alone the end of the chapter.
