Summary
A spellbinding novel set in the universe of Isaac Asimov’s classic Galactic Empire series and Foundation series

Due to circumstances within our control . . . tomorrow will be canceled.

The Eternals, the ruling class of the Future, had the power of life and death not only over every human being but over the very centuries into which they were born. Past, Present, and Future could be created or destroyed at will.

You had to be special to become an Eternal. Andrew Harlan was special. Until he committed the one unforgivable sin—falling in love.

Eternals weren’t supposed to have feelings. But Andrew could not deny the sensations that were struggling within him. He knew he could not keep this secret forever. And so he began to plan his escape, a plan that changed his own past . . . and threatened Eternity itself.

The narration does justice to many commentaries of Isaac Asimov's approach to Science Fiction, and this story is a prime example. It stands on its own and yet makes mention of Asimov's extensive other series' established narratives. A few technical details are of course dated by the time period it was written in, 1955, yet those details serve as a sort of unintentional foreshadowing, echoing the title's direction for the plot. There's a cozy sort of perspective thinking about time and time traveling that the problems of the present are in fact temporary. This story is a reminder that the means to the end are just as important as the desired outcome.
