The Argo Project Bert Oldenhuis

In the little known Turkish port of Derince in the winter of 1969, Chuck Williams, prodigy, polyglot and crack analyst for the US Naval Intelligence Office is mugged in a dark alley during a violent thunderstorm. When he wakes up, he finds himself in completely unfamiliar surroundings in the middle of summer miles from where he was attacked. Dorian, grandson and sole heir to the throne of King Cleandros of Elysion and on a quest with his ship and crew of thirty to avenge the massacre on the island kingdom, is hit by lightning during a summer storm in the marshes of a river delta. These two totally unrelated events, hundreds of miles and thousands of years separated from one another, have somehow merged in space and time and created a means for a physical exchange between Chuck and Dorian; where Dorian finds himself in twentieth century Istanbul and Chuck has landed in western Anatolia during the late Bronze Age. Were these events totally unrelated? Was it pure coincidence that brought Chuck and the beautiful Zarah together and was it pure coincidence that brought Dorian and chief medical officer Sara Phillips together? The two women looked so much alike they could have been twins even though they lived in entirely different eras. Forty-eight hours later Chuck and Dorian were restored to their own periods, but these forty eight hours were the longest and most eventful forty-eight hours each of them had ever experienced."The Argo Project" is the first book in the saga of Dorian-Sou. It'll take you on a mind-blowing journey through two eras and leave you with the conviction that all that happens is not just a roll of divine dice.
