Overview

What if the only way to save the future... was to rewrite the past? In 2025, Alexander Morrison stands at the edge of humanity's final hour. Wars loom. Leaders fail. Hope is a memory. Armed with a cracked prototype and an AI laced with sarcasm and grief, Alex makes an unthinkable choice-he jumps back to 1878. Not to kill. Not to conquer. But to steer. What follows is a collision of centuries: a time-travelling engineer, a diesel-powered Land Rover, and a world on the brink of empire and industrial revolution. But every action leaves a trace. And someone else is watching. As Alex navigates gaslit London, tangled loyalties, and shadows that move too precisely, he realises history isn't just broken-it's hungry. With nothing but his father's voice encoded in a sardonic AI named Charles, and the ghost of a dog he once loved, Alex must build alliances and change the outcome of a century... without destroying it in the process. The Man Who Jumped First is the gripping first instalment of The Badger Chronicles-an alternate history adventure about sacrifice, second chances, and the cost of rewriting time. - For readers of Ken Follett, C.J. Sansom, and S.M. Stirling - Thought-provoking, character-driven, and grounded in real-world consequences - Perfect for fans of time travel without fantasy shortcuts
