Christo Chaney: Futility Foretold, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In 1898 Morgan Robertson wrote Futility: The Wreck of the Titan. Now, 127 years later, the unofficial sequel has finally arrived! It was just a novel... or so he thought!

May 1898: Morgan Robertson published a story about a luxurious ocean liner-the largest ever built-that struck an iceberg & sank with a great loss of life. It was called the S. S. Titan. Fourteen years later, the real ship cast off.

April 1912: Robert Morganson boards the R. M.S. Titanic. He carries with him a first edition of Futility, the novel whose haunting similarities to the great ship's design, voyage, fate, and even its very name disturb him more with each page he reads. A rational man, he resists superstition-but can't ignore the signs. What began as a simple crossing soon becomes a personal reckoning with fate, fear, and multiple faith traditions. As the days slip by and disaster draws near, Robert chronicles everything in his journal: the people he meets, the questions he wrestles with, and the warnings no one seems to notice.

Part historical fiction, part speculative mystery, Futility Foretold reimagines the ship's final days through the eyes of a second-class passenger.

The S. S. Titan was fiction. But the R. M.S. Titanic was fact.

One man saw the truth buried between the lines. They were hidden in a forgotten novel.

Sometimes fiction sooner or later becomes fact. Sometimes too late.

Some stories warn. Others experience. This one does both!
