Time Travel Romantic Adventure – From Dystopia to New Beginnings
Tomorrow Once More is a two part, science fiction, time travel adventure. Both parts are included in this book. The story begins in the year 2234 where a solitary scientist is about to embark on a one-way trip into the future. Scientists have spent decades working on forward-only time travel. There will be no return trip for Lane Mason. Wherever he ends up is where he will live out the remainder of his days. In part one, Lane finds himself in a dystopian world in the 39th century where nations are obsolete and the earth is ruled by giant corporations. World history has been eliminated and 98% of humanity are worker slaves.
Since there is no return trip back to the 23rd century, in part two Lane reenters the capsule and the story moves forward almost 1000 years. Inside the capsule it is still the year 3859. But while time is moving slowly outside the capsule, time has moved with near light speed, inside the capsule. When Lane and his friends exit the capsule, Lane believes the year is around 4754. The world outside the capsule is even stranger than it was in 3859. As the story unfolds, Lane eventually learns that the future of the human race may depend on him and his friends.
***
In the year 2234, scientists have successfully achieved forward time travel. The Research Institute at Turtle Lake, North Dakota has spent over thirty years working on the project. Lane Mason would be the first human to enter the capsule. Lane knew when he volunteered for the project that he would never be able to return.
When he exits the capsule in 3853 to find a brutal world where the human race has been enslaved by huge corporations, Lane regrets leaving the capsule. Corporate slaves make up 96% of the human race and spend their lives working in slave prisons and are used to provide human organs to the privileged elite.
Lane barely survives for a year in the prison farm. He considers starting a rebellion but he soon realizes that any attempt to start a rebellion would be futile. The corporations have gradually and completely wiped out the real history of the human race. Prisoners have no idea that humans were once free. But even amid the brutality of an enslaved planet, love still finds a way. Humans are human after all.
Lane’s only hope is to escape the prison and return to the capsule. Although he can’t return home to his time, if he is able to escape, he can travel forward in time in the hope that the distant future will be better. But what would a world in the distant future, far beyond the prisons of the 39th century be like? Would the prisons still exist? Would the human race still exist? Would earth itself still exist? Lane decides that he is better off dying as a free man in an unknown future than living as a slave.
This story has two distinct parts Part One takes place on Earth, in the 39th century. Part Two takes place in the distant future; far beyond the brutality of the 39th century.
This is a story about the strength of love that endures in spite of an endless series of hardships. Above all, it is a story about courage and the persistent human spirit.
This book contains sexual situations and is recommended for young adults.

Tomorrow Once More A Novel eBook Dennis Butler Reviews
Tomorrow Once More is kind of a fascinating airport novel, that is, it is easy to follow and moves along quickly in a straight line without confusing sidesteps. That's the idea of an airport or beach read; you can read it and not get lost, even in the midst of noise and distractions. The main character is believable and may remind you of someone you know. Anyway, the book really is two books in one. The first part is about the development of the time machine which is very loosely based on real scientific experiments. The main character travels forward in time to wind up in a world where the human race has been enslaved by mega-corporations. There are some political underlying themes which may offend some people. I can't say much about part 2 without issuing a spoiler alert. You will have to read it and see what happens in part 2. Highly recommended for anyone who ever daydreamed about what the future holds in store for the human race.
This book really makes you scratch your head and think "What if?".
I don't know that I would volunteer like Lane did to travel to the future and believe if he could go back in time he would somehow change his own mind about the decision, but it's too late now. This story tells of a future that you can almost imagine being true with greed winning out and true brutality showing at every turn.
But true to human nature we all seek love and companionship and I believe that is one of the things that make us fight the hardest to survive.
Lane forges forward into time again hoping for a better world than his original destination and is surprised once again at what he finds.
Finding my own humor in this story I think to myself, what guy wouldn't want to have the task of helping repopulate the earth fall to him. Just saying. )
Don't want to give away any plot twists at the end, but don't miss this one.
I haven't read me some good indie sci-fi for a while, so I curled up with my and a steaming mug of French vanilla coffee and sank into this book. Whoa. The main character is chosen to be a test subject--stuck inside a 600-square-foot capsule for almost eight years! Shivers, you guys, shivers. Talk about claustrophobia! But this all happens in a carefully constructed future, and Lane finds himself jumping from the frying pan into the fire--as he gets thrown onto a striploin farm. Oops!
Seems the whole world has been taken over by corporations, and unless you're lucky enough to be one of the rich guys, you get forced into a job you really, really don't want. And then when you're too old to work, you're disposed of. Literally.
I couldn't put this down, not even when my hubs reminded me it was time for dinner (and figures that night was steak). I had to find out what happened to Lane! Trust me, you will want to, too. Give it a whirl!
Awesome book! Dennis Butler’s “Tomorrow Once More†offers a fascinating romp through time that kept me turning pages into the night! The book begins with the main character, Lane, a participant in a government experiment in time travel, waking with the knowledge that he is at some point in the future, but with no idea how far ahead he’s truly gone. He quickly discovers that in a subjective eight years, he has actually traveled almost 1500 years away from his own time, from 2253 to 3853! Lane is eager to find out how the world has changed, but he quickly finds out that life in the future is no picnic when he’s carted off to work as a slave on a corporate prison farm. “Tomorrow Once More†does what science fiction does best, hold up a fun-house mirror to our own world and in doing so offer us a seamless critique of where we are and where we may be going. But ultimately, the book is a story of two characters, Lane and Abbie, their growing love, and the desperate leap they take together in the hope of finding another, perhaps better future. I don’t want to give away any more, but I will say the book held my attention, and I’m looking forward to reading more from this author. Highly recommended!
When Lane Mason, a scientist and a test pilot, boards the space travel capsule to travel far into the future, he is prepared to spend ten years in the confined isolation of the tiny capsule in the name of science and breakthrough research. As his capsule gains speed and accelerates to faster than light speed, it bends time and enters the future. All communication with the control center is lost, as was expected in case of the successful outcome. As a an accomplished physicist, Lane knows that time travel into the past is not possible. Thus, his flight will be one way, into the unknown.
He travels for seven and a half years until he's finally able to leave the capsule. The initial euphoria Lane feels because of the momentary freedom he experiences is quickly replaced with the realization that the world of the future he arrived to is far from welcoming. The picture of our future civilization painted by Dennis Butler is bleak devoid of free will and ability to think independently, the people of the future are reduced to nothing more than slaves in a highly regulated and controlled corporation. In the tradition of dystopian literature of George Orwell and Aldous Huxley, Dennis Butler creates a world ruled by a dictatorial government where citizens are closely monitored by the secret police. There seems to be no escape from this world and not enough free will on anybody's part to attempt such escape.
Lane Mason, the man who came from a more progressive time of the past, may be the only hope and the only person who can save himself and others from this miserable existence. His love for Abbie provides an incentive for his attempt to help others to escape. The question is whether his space capsule will be able to handle another long flight and whether a better place exists in the universe where a better life can be established. And that question is answered in an unusual and unexpected way in this novel.
