AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Fox and BC travel through time from the distant future to 1901. Elite cadets in the Imperial Army, they are young, handsome, well-mannered ... and now, mutineers. They have journeyed into the past to save the opening ceremony of Australia's first parliament from being bombed. If the cadets fail, thousands will die, sparking a century of total war. However, to change the destiny of the world, the young warriors will need the help of three ordinary teenagers ...'

Steampunk note: This story plays into steampunk territory with a 1901 setting, the time-traveller's steampunk-esque technology, and a focus on the mechanics of alternate histories.
