The Map of Time

Nothing is as it appears to be in Félix J. Palma's The Map of Time!

Just when you think you have an idea of where this unique novel is going, it changes directions.  There are more twists and turns in this 600+ page novel (though it does not read like a long novel) than there are in a garden maze.  Palma mixes in a little bit of everything in his first novel: love, sex, adventure, mystery, science fiction, historical and imaginary characters, murder, time travel and much more.  Set in Victorian London, you will encounter Jack the Ripper, Joseph Merrick the Elephant Man, Bram Stoker, Henry James and H.G. Wells.  Palma weaves a historical fantasy as imaginative as it is exciting.  He will have you questioning what is real and what isn't.  So buckle your seat belts.  You don't want to develop whiplash.  AND Enjoy the ride!!!
