To Thomas, archaeology was time travel... little did he know how literal that would turn out to be.
Thomas Wharton, an archaeology graduate, becomes drawn into the problems of a series of anachronistic characters who exist in the fractions of a second behind our own time. These characters turn out to be personifications of the Cambridge Colleges; they have the amalgamated foibles, history, and temperament of their Fellows and students and, together with Thomas, must enter into a race against time to prevent their world being destroyed by an unknown assailant. King Street Run is a satirical fantasy thriller set among the iconic buildings of contemporary Cambridge.
