The Revisionists
ByPublisher Description
A fast-paced literary thriller that recalls dystopian classics such as 1984 and Fahrenheit 451, from the award-winning author of The Last Town on Earth.
Zed is an agent from the future. A time when the world's problems have been solved. No hunger. No war. No despair.
His mission is to keep it that way. Even if it means ensuring every cataclysm throughout history runs its course-especially The Great Conflagration, an imminent disaster in our own time that Zed has been ordered to protect at all costs.
Zed's mission will disrupt the lives of a disgraced former CIA agent; a young Washington lawyer grieving over the loss of her brother, a soldier in Iraq; the oppressed employee of a foreign diplomat; and countless others. But will he finish his final mission before the present takes precedence over a perfect future? One that may have more cracks than he realizes?
The Revisionists puts a fresh spin on today's global crises, playing with the nature of history and our own role in shaping it. It firmly establishes Mullen as one of the most exciting and imaginative writers of his generation.

“Rather than a time-travel thriller this is more of a conspiracy thriller heavily focused on relationships rather than suspense. I think this needed different marketing. It is slow to get started, and it took a bit for the characters to become distinguishable from each other. The story is fine, but definitely not what you sign up for reading the description.”

“Very interesting story line that almost makes you doubt the truth as much as the characters do. I was hoping for a more suspenseful ending but I appreciate the author tying up all the loose ends”
