Synopsis:

While transporting a contraband Russian time machine and developmental weaponry, Private Everett Dumphee finds himself cast into new settings when the device suddenly activates. What follows are fantastic high-tech experiences that might be called the ultimate off-road adventure. For the determined Dumphee--narrowly escaping with his life and three beautiful women--it is not necessarily a matter of will he make his destination, but when. These four vividly created characters trek through this fun and fast moving journey like there's no tomorrow. Wherever that may be. L. Ron Hubbard, who wrote the original screenplay, and Dave Wolverton (STAR WARS: THE COURTSHIP OF PRINCESS LEIA), who wrote the novel version, deliver a highly absorbing and entertaining story with more than one interesting twist. L. Ron Hubbard Biography: Though he was first and foremost a writer, his life experiences and travels in all corners of the globe were wide and diverse. His insatiable curiosity and personal belief that one should live life as a professional led to a lifetime of extraordinary accomplishment. He was also an explorer and ethnologist, mariner, pilot, filmmaker, photographer, philosopher, educator, composer and musician. Growing up in the rugged frontier country of Montana, Ron broke his first bronc and became the blood brother of a Blackfoot Indian medicine man by the age of ten. In 1927, when he was sixteen, he traveled to a still-remote Asia. The following year, to further satisfy his thirst for adventure and augment his growing knowledge of other cultures, he left school and returned to the Orient. On his trip, he worked as a supercargo and helmsman aboard a coastal trader that plied the seas between Japan and Java. He came to know old Shanghai, Beijing and the western hills at a time when few Westerners could enter China. He traveled more than a quarter of a million miles by sea and land while still a teenager and before the advent of commercial aviation as we know it. He returned to the United States in the autumn of 1929 to complete his formal education. He entered The George Washington University in Washington, D.C., where he studied engineering and took one of the earliest courses in atomic and molecular physics. In addition to his studies, he was the secretary of the Engineering Society and president of the Flying Club, and wrote articles, stories and plays for the university newspaper. During the same period he also barnstormed across the American Midwest and was a national correspondent and photographer for the Sportsman Pilot magazine, one of the most distinguished aviation publications of its day. L. Ron Hubbard's legendary writing career, one of the most widely read and enduring of our time, encompassed more than 250 novels, short stories and screenplays in every major genre including 19 New York Times bestsellers. Among his bestselling and classic speculative fiction trendsetters are Fear, Final Blackout, Ole Doc Methuselah and his crowning epic masterworks, Battlefield Earth and the ten-volume Mission Earth series, which together dominated American bestseller lists for 153 weeks.
