A Review of Going, Going, Gone!

“A joyous romp. A rollicking rollercoaster ride through the essence of what makes America fun and worthwhile. A wild cross between Ragtime, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, Back to the Future and Field of Dreams.”

                  —David Henry Sterry, author, Satchel Sez (with Arielle Eckstut)

 

“An astonishing triple play of baseball, time travel, and unforgettable characters. Funny, imaginative, and thrilling! ”

                —Zack Hample, author, Watching Baseball Smarter and The Ball

 

“Fantastical invention. A delight.”

                 —Lamar Herrin, author, Fractures and The Rio Loja Ringmaster

 

Going, Going, Gone is a fascinating journey through time, filled with surprising twists and inside curves. This hilarious novel traces the misadventures of an unlikely trio of heroes who suddenly find themselves adrift in the middle of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. What follows is not only an entertaining joyride through the back pages of history, but also an insightful look at how the absurdities of the culture we live in shape our perception of the world. Step aside, H.G. Wells. This is time-travel fiction with a lot of spin.”

                   —Hugh Delehanty, author, Eleven Rings (with Phil Jackson)
