A Yankee Lost in Time
Imagine waking up in a world where electricity doesn't exist, where people believe the Earth is flat, and where your smartphone would be considered witchcraft. This is precisely the situation Hank Morgan finds himself in after a blow to the head transports this practical Connecticut factory foreman from 19th-century America to 6th-century England. Initially convinced he's surrounded by asylum inmates pretending to be medieval figures, Morgan gradually accepts his impossible situation. When brought before King Arthur and sentenced to burn as a sorcerer, Morgan's quick thinking saves him. Remembering a solar eclipse occurred on June 21, 528 AD, he threatens to "blot out the sun" unless freed. As darkness falls across the land exactly when predicted, the terrified court begs for mercy. Morgan negotiates skillfully, demanding appointment as the king's chief minister. When the eclipse ends "on his command," the former prisoner becomes "The Boss"-second only to King Arthur himself. This brilliant opening establishes the novel's central tension: a practical, democratic American armed with scientific knowledge versus a superstitious, hierarchical medieval society.
