Future World Rocks! (Going Back to Our Roots) by Terry Tumbler is a science fiction novel that would appeal most to a mixed audience of mature young adults and adults who enjoy futuristic fiction and who do not mind narrative sex and futuristic bad language. A group of Nazi scientists and their time travel ship, known as the Bell, are brought into the United States to work on anti-gravity propulsion, but the location and the lack of entertainment quickly causes scientists Fritz and Selik to go rogue. The pair manages to steal the craft, intent on going to the nearest town to withdraw money and disappear, only to find themselves 200 years in the future. Meanwhile, a teenager by the name of John Peel begins his foray into creating free energy for everyone with electro-magnetic experiments; years later John finds himself fleeing from aliens in his own flying saucer and traveling through time. Can Fritz, Selik, and John survive in the future?
Future World Rocks! (Going Back to Our Roots) by Terry Tumbler begins with a prologue called Setting The Scene Afresh; this section proved to be extremely helpful to me as it explained the time period, culture, and beliefs held by the majority of the people on Earth during the parts of the book that took place in the future. I personally found John Peel to be my favorite character because of his positive outlook on life, his intelligence, and his ability to adapt to crazy situations. My favorite scene was when John first encounters a flying saucer that did not belong to him as it was the first real hint of alien life forms in the story. Overall, I really enjoyed reading this book and I liked how it had multiple characters with their own stories that linked up in the future!
