Oswald Bastable, an Edwardian soldier, awakens in an alternate future where history has taken a dramatically different path. Swept into conflicts spanning multiple realities and timelines, Bastable finds himself navigating airships, strange empires, impossible technologies, and political intrigue while searching for a way to understand his own place in history. The novel launches Moorcock’s acclaimed Nomad of Time trilogy.
EugeneBookStore Summary
The Nomad of Time is the opening volume of one of Michael Moorcock’s finest alternate-history adventures. Blending Victorian exploration, speculative science, and Moorcock’s signature multiverse concepts, it offers a unique mix of adventure and philosophical science fiction that helped define the steampunk genre long before the term became popular.
Collector Notes
This hardcover edition is increasingly desirable among Michael Moorcock collectors, particularly when found with clean illustrated boards. The Nomad of Time introduces Oswald Bastable, one of Moorcock’s major recurring heroes, and laid the foundation for many alternate-history and steampunk novels that followed. Copies without a dust jacket remain collectible due to their relatively limited hardcover printings.
